Zucchini and feta fritters

So we are eating zucchini like mad now. It's almost like a challenge not to throw one out and find new ways of eating them but not entirely realising you are eating a zucchini at the same time.
This recipe is a winner as it uses a whopping 5 zucchinis in one hit.

These fritters are pretty darn good. In a restuarant they would be deep fried and amazing. For numerous reasons, we will never own a deep fryer, so we shallow fry them instead.

5 medium zucchinis grated

2 eggs, lightly beaten

Fresh parsley, fresh mint

100g feta cheese

2tbs plain flour

2tbs cornflour

Salt and Pepper

1 small onion finely chopped

1 clove garlic finely chopped

Yoghurt to serve

Grate the zucchini and sprinkle with a few teaspoons of salt. Leave for 20 minutes, then give it a rinse and squeeze out any excess water.

Beat the eggs and add to the zucchini. Add the feta, onion, garlic, finely chopped herbs and salt and pepper. Mix together.

Finally add the plain flour and cornflour and combine.

 

Heat some olive oil in a frypan and fry tablespoons of mixture in the oil. 

Serve with some creamy yoghurt and a wedge of lemon.
