Frequently Asked Questions About Einkorn zucchini fritter
What is an einkorn zucchini fritter?
An einkorn zucchini fritter is a savory patty made with grated zucchini, einkorn flour, and egg. The mixture is shaped into small rounds and usually pan-fried, though it can also be baked for a less oily result.
How do you make einkorn zucchini fritters crispy?
To make einkorn zucchini fritters crisp, squeeze as much liquid as possible from the grated zucchini and avoid crowding the pan. Cook the patties in a thin layer of hot oil, turning them once the first side is golden.
Why are my einkorn zucchini fritters soggy?
Einkorn zucchini fritters often turn soggy when the zucchini releases too much water or the pan is overcrowded. Squeeze the grated zucchini thoroughly, fry in small batches, and let cooked fritters rest briefly on a rack rather than stacking them.
Can you bake einkorn zucchini fritters instead of frying them?
Yes, you can bake einkorn zucchini fritters on a parchment-lined tray. Shape the patties evenly, leave space between them, and turn them partway through cooking so both sides brown. They will be less crisp than pan-fried fritters.
What does einkorn flour do in zucchini fritters?
Einkorn flour binds the grated zucchini and egg into a workable fritter batter. Its flavor is mildly nutty, so it gives the patties a different taste from those made with standard wheat flour; the batter may also need time to thicken.
Can you use frozen zucchini for einkorn zucchini fritters?
Yes, thawed frozen zucchini can work in einkorn zucchini fritters, but it releases a lot of moisture. Drain and squeeze it very well before mixing it with the egg and einkorn flour, or the patties may be difficult to shape.
What sauce goes well with einkorn zucchini fritters?
A garlicky yogurt sauce pairs especially well with einkorn zucchini fritters, balancing their browned edges and mild zucchini flavor. Serve the sauce on the side so the fritters stay crisp, or add a squeeze of lemon just before eating.
Can you make einkorn zucchini fritters without peeling the zucchini?
Yes, you can leave the zucchini unpeeled when making einkorn zucchini fritters. Wash and dry it first, then grate it with the skin on; peeling is only needed if the skin is unusually tough or you prefer a smoother texture.
How do you reheat einkorn zucchini fritters without making them soft?
Reheat einkorn zucchini fritters in a skillet or oven rather than the microwave. A dry skillet over moderate heat or a hot oven helps restore their browned exterior, while microwaving tends to make the patties soft.
Can einkorn zucchini fritters be made ahead for a picnic?
Yes, you can cook einkorn zucchini fritters ahead and chill them in a sealed container before packing. Keep them cold during transport and serve them chilled or reheat them; packing them while warm can trap steam and soften their crust.

What is Einkorn zucchini fritter?
An Einkorn zucchini fritter is a Turkish-style mücver made with grated zucchini, egg and einkorn flour. Einkorn is an old variety of wheat, and its flour gives this familiar home-cooked dish a gently distinctive grain flavour.
The fritters are usually tender inside with lightly browned edges, and can be served warm or at room temperature. In Turkey, they often accompany a meal as a side or meze, with yoghurt alongside; they also work as a light lunch. The combination of zucchini, egg and flour makes them more substantial than plain vegetables, with 6.2 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter version, cook them in the oven or use only a little oil in the pan.
