🛒 Ingredients:

For the Fritters:

• 2 medium zucchinis, grated

• ½ tsp salt

• 1 egg, lightly beaten

• ¼ cup grated Parmesan

• ¼ cup finely chopped spring onions or chives

• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or dill

• ⅓ cup all-purpose flour

• ¼ tsp baking powder

• Freshly ground black pepper

• Vegetable oil, for frying

For the Herbed Yogurt Dip:

• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp lemon juice

• 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill or mint

• Salt & pepper to taste

🔥 Instructions:

1. Prep the Zucchini

Grate zucchini and sprinkle with salt. Let sit in a strainer or cheesecloth for 10–15 minutes to release moisture. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

2. Mix the Batter

In a bowl, combine drained zucchini, egg, Parmesan, herbs, onions, flour, baking powder, and pepper. Mix well until a thick batter forms.

3. Fry the Fritters

Heat a thin layer of oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Scoop tablespoons of the batter into the pan, flattening slightly. Fry for 2–3 minutes per side or until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

4. Make the Dip

Mix yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

5. Serve

Serve fritters warm with a side of herbed yogurt dip. Garnish with extra herbs if desired.
