This recipe is adapted from Smitten Kitchen, where she takes prettier pictures in her light-filled and not a total disaster-area kitchen and also gives more of a damn. Things not to judge me about on this post: the dirtiness of my stove; the dirtiness and lack of put-away dishes on my counter; the fact that we had no paper towels on this day so I drained my fritters on a lunch bag. Things to tell me are so great about me and my cooking: I’m using a cast-iron to deep-fry things in; I made this shit from scratch; I used a paper bag to drain my fritters.
Zucchini fritters! They are so goddamn tasty.

I will go ahead and say zucchini fritters are the yummiest things you can do with zucchini, and I don’t hate on zucchini or anything. They are just that good. They’re also really hard to screw up. You need just a few things:










OK, I love this not just because the recipe sounds fantastic. I love it because I have the same effed up stove, the same formica countertop (except mine is yellow), and the same big-ass cast iron pan. Cast iron rocks! And, bonus, we don’t even own a microwave, so I can’t possibly screw up the reheating bit. Totally trying this recipe — thanks!
