4 cups/600g of grated zucchini + 1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 handful parsley chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup/61g of coconut flour + more if needed gram flour, or gluten-free flour will work just fine
2 flax eggs - 2 tablespoons of flaxseed mixed with 4 tablespoons of water
2 tablespoons coconut or olive oil

Add the grated zucchini to a cheesecloth or thin kitchen towel in a colander over your kitchen sink. Sprinkle with the 1 teaspoon of salt and leave to drain for 10 minutes.
After ten minutes, squeeze as much liquid out of the zucchini as possible. This is a crucial step to not making your fritters soggy!
Add to a bowl and mix in all the other ingredients until just combined.
Form fritter balls the size of 2 tablespoons and slightly flatten them on a plate or baking sheet with your fingers until you get about 10.
Heat the oil in a pan over high heat. Add the zucchini fritters, leaving some space between each, and cook on each side until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip, and cook for another for minutes.
Serve with some vegan sour cream, lime crema or vegan greek yogurt and lime wedges to squeeze over. Enjoy!

These fritters can be stored in an airtight Tupperware container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
