Cooking Instructions

step 1

Take a large bowl. Put Chickpea Flour (1 cup) and Rice Flour (4 Tbsp) in it per the quantities mentioned above.

step 2

Add the Cumin Seeds (1 tsp), Ground Turmeric (1/4 tsp), Cayenne Chili Pepper (1/4 tsp), Garam Masala (1/4 tsp), Salt (1/2 tsp), and juice from Lemon (1).

step 3

Now add Oil (1 Tbsp) and whisk all contents in the bowl.

step 4

Now add Water (1 cup) and whisk all contents in the bowl some more to form a smooth batter.

step 5

Add Fresh Cilantro (2 Tbsp) and whisk again. The final batter will be slightly thin, but still thick enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon.

step 6

Pre-heat the frying pan or griddle at low heat. Oil it with remaining Oil (2 Tbsp) using basting brush.

step 7

Once the pan is ready, start placing the batter dipped Zucchini (3) one by one, on the pan or griddle.

step 8

Keep the heat low and cover the pan/griddle with lid let for approximately 2 minutes.

step 9

Flip the zucchini fritters to the other side once little brown from bottom and let them get crisp from other side. Nice golden brown color means fritters are cooked.

step 10

Transfer the pan-fried fritters to a mesh surface - keeping them from creating excess steam prevents them from getting soggy. Serve with your choice of dip.
