- Large Nonstick Skillet

Ingredients
- 2 Large Zucchini (650 g)
- Salt
- 4 oz Feta Cheese
- 4 Scallions
- 3 sprigs Fresh Mint
- 3 sprigs Fresh Dill
- 2 Eggs
- 2 Garlic Cloves
- 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
- 3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- Canola Oil
- 1 tsp Butter
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt for dipping
Instructions
- Shred zucchini on the large holes of a cheese grater. Place in a colander set over a bowl, sprinkle with salt, and let drain for 15 minutes. Squeeze out any liquid, using the back of the tablespoon and pressing the shredded zucchini against the colander.
- Crumble the feta into a large bowl. Finely slice the green onions and add to the bowl. Chop the mint and dill finely and add to the bowl. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl and add to the feta and herb mixture. Crush the garlic cloves and stir in.
- Add the grated lemon peel, flour, baking powder and zucchini. Stir well.
- Cover the bottom of a large skillet generously with the oil. Add the butter and heat over medium heat. As soon as the oil is hot, spoon a 1/4 cup of the mixture into the oil, being careful not to crowd the pan. They should be the size of traditional pancakes.
- Fry until the fritters are golden, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat until you've used all of the mixture. Serve warm with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
