Flourless Zucchini Fritters

These flourless zucchini fritters are inspired by a South Asian dish called “pokora” or “pokoda," commonly made with chickpea flour, vegetables, and Indian spices. In this recipe, chickpea flour is blended with zucchini, cilantro, coriander, and chili powder, and then pan fried with coconut oil. These fritters stick to zucchini but you could also add other veggies like spinach, cauliflower, or broccoli. Serve with some flavorful aioli for a fun and healthy snack!
