Steps

Prepare Zucchini

Grate the zucchini using a large-hole grater, then sprinkle with a teaspoon of salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then thoroughly squeeze out the excess water using a kitchen towel or paper towels. This is crucial for crispy fritters.

Fritter Batter

In a large bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until you get a thick but workable batter.

Prepare Dip

Prepare the garlic-yogurt dip: In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, then refrigerate until serving.

Frying

Heat a generous amount of sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Spoon small portions of the batter into the hot oil and flatten them with the back of a spoon. Fry the fritters for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. After frying, place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

Serve the warm zucchini fritters immediately with the cold garlic-yogurt dip. You can garnish with fresh dill.

Extra Tips

► After grating the zucchini, make sure to squeeze out as much excess water as possible; this will make your fritters crispier and prevent them from becoming soggy.
