Actor Stanley Tucci recently shared a recipe for zucchini fritters, describing the dish as a family favorite he prepares frequently. The recipe is based on his grandmother's version and appears in his book, The Tucci Cookbook.
The recipe uses four main ingredients: zucchini, Pecorino Romano cheese, flour, and egg. Basic kitchen staples like olive oil, salt, and pepper are also needed.
Making the fritters begins with grating the zucchini. The grated vegetable is then tossed with salt and placed in a colander to drain excess water. This step helps the fritters become crisp when cooked.
After draining, the zucchini is combined with the egg, grated cheese, and flour to form a batter. Spoonfuls of the batter are then cooked in hot olive oil until golden brown. Tucci recommends making the fritters about tablespoon-size.
The actor shared the recipe in a video on his Instagram account, noting that it took some effort to get his children to try them initially. Once they tasted the fritters, he said, they enjoyed them and now ask for them often.
Beyond recipes, Tucci has also discussed his home style. He has showcased gray outdoor furniture paired with wood accents, a combination noted for its versatility and timeless appeal in exterior spaces. gray outdoor furniture
