Notes
Important - Add salt to grated zucchini and let it rest for 10 minutes. Then squeeze out excess liquid as much as possible. This is an important step for perfect consistency.Make smaller disc/ fritters. If the fritter falls apart or remains uncooked in the center means they have still a lot of moisture. Air fryer tips - Place the fritters on one row without touching each other. Spray oil for a good golden brown color.If making in batches, reduce the time by 2 minutes after the first batch.Flip the fritters halfway for even cooking.
