Zucchini Clouds are a delightful treat, light and fluffy with a hint of savory flavors from herbs and spices. These are not only easy to make but also incredibly delicious, ensuring everyone will fall in love with them at first bite. Perfect as a side dish, appetizer, or even a snack, they are sure to impress. Let’s get started on these soft, cloud-like zucchini fritters.
Ingredients:

• 2 zucchinis (400 g / 14 oz.), grated
• 2 egg whites
• 70 g (2.5 oz.) all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
• Salt, to taste
• Oil for frying

Preparation:

1. Prepare the Zucchini:
   • Wash and grate the zucchinis. Place the grated zucchini in a strainer, sprinkle with a little salt, and let it sit for about 10 minutes to draw out the excess moisture. After 10 minutes, squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
2. Mix the Ingredients:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained zucchini, flour, black pepper, dried parsley, sweet paprika, and instant yeast. Mix well to ensure the zucchini is coated with the flour and spices.
3. Whip the Egg Whites:
   • In a separate, clean bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will add lightness to the zucchini clouds, making them fluffy.
