ingredients
Yogurt Dipping Sauce
Zucchini Fritters
directions
Add yogurt, water, mustard, parsley, dill, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Thin with 1 teaspoon (5 mL) water if needed.
Sprinkle grated zucchini with kosher salt. Transfer to colander and let stand for 1 hour. Squeeze out excess moisture. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in small skillet set over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until translucent and softened. Cool completely.
In a large bowl, combine zucchini, onion mixture, feta, parsley, dill, cumin, egg, salt and pepper. The mixture will be soft and sticky. Shape heaping tablespoons of zucchini mixture into a patty. Dredge in flour. Transfer to baking tray lined with parchment.
Pour enough oil to come about 1-inch (2.5 cm) up the sides of the pan. Heat set over medium-high heat. Shallow fry patties in batches, for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until golden brown all over. Drain on paper towel. Serve with Yogurt Dipping Sauce.
Test Kitchen Notes: If desired, fry fritters in olive oil for added flavour.
