When it looks like it’s 3/4 set, arrange the cooked zucchini on top, then cover with a lid for 10-20 seconds, then place a lid onto your pan that is slightly and flip the fritter onto it, slide it back onto the to the pan. Cook for 30 seconds the turn off the heat and slide onto a plate to cool slightly.
