Zucchini Fritters

Eventhough my today's recipe calls for fritters, they are not deepfried but something different from the usual deepfrying. Yes these zucchini fritters sounds as much as like pancakes. One of the easiest fritters you can dish out just in few minutes. These fritters are unbelievably easy to do, just grate zucchini, drain them completely with a cheese cloth and add in other ingredients to make a thick paste. Then just drop a tablespoon of fritter batter in a pan to cook as much as like pancakes. Flip the fritters,cook on both sides until they turns golden brown and serve with a spicy dip or else simply with cheese based dips.

Vegetarian Empanadas

An empanada also called pastel in Brazilian Portuguese and pate in Haitian Creole is a stuffed bread or pastry baked or fried in many countries in Latin Europe, Latin America, the Southwestern United States, and parts of Southeast Asia. The name comes from the Galician, Portuguese, and Spanish verb empanar, meaning to wrap or coat in bread.Empanadas are made by folding dough or bread with stuffing consisting of a variety of meat, cheese, vegetables, fruits, and others. My today's vegetarian empanadas goes for an interesting cheesy stuffing, yes i stuffed this empanadas with paneer along with mixed vegetables. Obviously if you want to make a super cheesy paneer empanadas just skip the vegetables. However i loved this vegetable loaded paneer empanadas.
