Zucchini Fritters with Dill Sauce

Ingredients

    blank

    • 1 pound of zucchini, shredded

    • 3 eggs

    • 1 bunch of green onion, chopped (should be about a cup)

    • 2 tablespoons of fresh dill, chopped

    • 3 cloves of garlic, minced

    • 1 tablespoon of lemon zest

    • 2 cups of panko breadcrumbs

    • Salt and pepper to taste

    blank

    • ¼ cup of greek yogurt

    • ¼ cup of mayonnaise

    • 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice

    • 2 cloves of garlic, minced

    • 1 tablespoon of fresh dill, chopped

    • ½ teaspoon of onion powder

    Directions

    1. Grate the zucchini with a box grater. Place on paper towels and squeeze out the moisture.

    2. In a mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, green onion, fresh dill, eggs, garlic, lemon zest, and 1 ½ cup of panko breadcrumbs. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.

    3. Preheat your stainless steel fry pan for a few minutes on medium low heat.

    4. Once the pan is preheated, place a high smoke point oil in the pan. Form your fritters by using a ¼ cup of the mixture and pressing them into the remaining panko breadcrumbs.

    5. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, adding additional oil to the pan as needed, until golden brown. Remove from the fry pan and place on a paper towel to drain.

    6. For the sauce, combine the greek yogurt, mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, garlic, onion powder, and salt to taste. Mix to combine.

    7. Serve the zucchini fritters with the dill sauce on the side.
