Zucchini Bits and Bites

Here they are not even in season yet but somehow I am very taken with zucchini these last weeks. First I found a wonderful recipe for a zucchini soup in Patricia Wells' new "French Kitchen Cookbook"  then the recipe for these Zucchini bites at G2Food, an inspirational, beautifully photographed English/Turkish foodblog. Somehow my bites look totally different and not half as elegant as the original ones, I guess I grated the zucchini far more coarsely - but boy, did they taste good!

PS: Now I know why my zucchini bites look so different - the original used just the white flesh leftover from a  stuffed zucchini recipe - if you want the whole story and to know the exact recipe have a look at the comments at G2Food.

  2. They look delicious Barbara! Reminds me of our zucchini fritters, mucver; where we add feta, spring onion and dill to the mixture too - yummy!

  5. Zucchini is "our new potato". We now have zucchini more than potatoes and everyone is happy. Yours look delicious and I see no reason to just use the white.
