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.

Categories     Appetizer

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups grated zucchini ((about 3 or 4 depending on size))
1 cup provolone cheese ( shredded (or mozzarella))
½ cup Parmesan cheese ( grated)
½ cup breadcrumbs ((I used Panko))
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 medium onion (finely chopped)
2 tablespoon dill (chopped)
2 large eggs (beaten)
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Line a big bowl with paper towels. Grate the zucchini in the prepared bowl, do one zucchini at a time, then strain all of the water from them using paper towels. Alternatively, you can place the grated zucchini in a colander over the sink, and add about a tsp of salt to the zucchini. Gently toss, then using paper towels, drain the zucchini.
  • In a large bowl add the grated zucchini, provolone cheese, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, flour, onion, dill, eggs and season with salt and pepper. I usually don't add any salt because there should be enough sodium from the cheese. Mix really well.
  • In a skillet heat about a tablespoon of the vegetable oil. You can either form patties or use a spoon to drop small amounts of the zucchini mixtures to the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry on both sides until golden brown, then repeat with remaining zucchini mixture/patties.
  • Serve warm by themselves or with ranch dressing.

Tips:

  • To ensure the zucchini patties hold their shape and cook evenly, it's crucial to squeeze out any excess moisture from the grated zucchini. This can be done using a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel.
  • For a crispier exterior, consider coating the patties in breadcrumbs before pan-frying. This adds a delightful crunch and golden-brown color.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices to enhance the flavor of the zucchini patties. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian version of the dill dip, substitute Greek yogurt or sour cream for the mayonnaise.
  • To save time, prepare the zucchini patties and dill dip ahead of time and store them separately in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, simply reheat the patties in a pan or oven and whisk together the dip.
