Ingredients
- 500 g Zucchini
- 1 tsp Salt
- 200 g Feta
- 2 pc Eggs
- 100 g Plain flour
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 pc Garlic clove
- 1 bunch Dill
- 1 pinch Pepper
- 4 tbsp Cooking oil
- 200 g Plain yogurt
- 1 bunch Mint
- 1 pc Lemon
Method
- Finely grate the zucchini, mix with a teaspoon of salt and leave to stand for 10 minutes.
- Squeeze the zucchini firmly in a clean tea towel or with your hands so that as much liquid as possible comes out.
- Crumble the feta, beat the eggs and mix both with the zucchini, the flour, the baking powder, the finely chopped garlic clove, the chopped dill and a pinch of pepper to form a thick batter.
- For the dip, mix the yogurt with the juice of half a lemon, the finely chopped mint and a pinch of salt and chill.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan and add one heaped tablespoon of batter per fritter for each, flattening them slightly.
- Fry the fritters over medium heat for about 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown, drain on kitchen paper and keep warm in batches.
- Serve the fritters with the mint yogurt dip and, if you like, refine them with a splash of lemon juice.
