Steps

1Grate the zucchini and place it in a colander, squeezing out as much excess water as possible.
2In a large bowl, whisk the egg. Add the drained zucchini, corn kernels, all-purpose flour, baking powder, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper.
3Mix well until just combined and a thick batter forms.
4Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
5Spoon tablespoonfuls of the batter into the hot skillet, flattening them slightly to form fritters.
6Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
7Serve the zucchini and corn fritters hot, with a dollop of sour cream if desired.
