Zucchini Fritters with Lime Cilantro Rice

• 1/2 Cup long grain white rice
• 1 Cup water
• 2 Teaspoon olive oil
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 Teaspoon lemon zest
• 1/4 Teaspoon salt
• 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 Cup cilantro
• 2 zucchini
• 1/2 Teaspoon salt
• 2 egg
• 1/4 Cup green onions
• 1 Cup all-purpose flour
• 1 Teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper
• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 1 avocado

• Make the rice: add rice, water, and half of the olive oil in a pot and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cook on low heat for 15 minutes, remove the pot from heat and let sit covered for 5 more minutes. Once done fluff with a fork. Add the rest of the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, salt, lemon juice, and cilantro to the pot of rice and mix until incorporated.
• Make the zucchini fritters: grate the zucchini using a cheese grater. Add grated zucchini to a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 10 minutes. This will remove any excess liquid.
