Categories     Appetizers

Yield 12 Fritters

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound zucchini (about 2 medium), trimmed
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
2 scallions, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 medium garlic clove, minced or pressed through a garlic press
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour (or cornstarch)
½ teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if necessary
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Shred the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater or in a food processor fitted with the shredding disk. Transfer the zucchini to a fine mesh strainer and set over a bowl. Toss the zucchini with the salt and let it sit for 10 minutes. Wring all of the excess liquid out of the zucchini with your hands, then set aside.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Mix in the dried zucchini, scallions, dill, feta, garlic and black pepper. Sprinkle the flour (or corn starch) and baking powder over mixture and stir until uniformly incorporated.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Drop 2-tablespoon sized portions into the pan, then use the back of a spoon to gently press the batter into 2-inch-wide fritters. Pan-fry until golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate. Add a bit more oil to the pan if necessary, then repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm or room temperature with lemon wedges.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked fritters can be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat them on a cookie sheet in a 200°F oven until heated through.
