Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups diced fresh tomatoes with juices
½ cup packed grated zucchini
⅓ cup sliced green onions
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch cayenne pepper
¼ cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
¾ cup all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¾ teaspoon baking powder
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Stir together tomatoes, zucchini, green onions, kosher salt, sugar, black pepper, oregano, and cayenne in a bowl to combine.
  • Let sit for 15 minutes for the sugar and salt to draw out liquids from the vegetables.
  • Stir the tomato mixture; add parsley, mint, and basil. Crumble in feta cheese. Add flour and baking powder; mix with a spoon until combined. Batter should be relatively loose but will hold its shape on a spoon. If too loose, add more flour; if too dry, add some water until desired consistency is reached.
  • Wrap the bowl in plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), or use a deep fryer.
  • Place heaping tablespoonfuls of batter in the hot oil; reduce heat to medium. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Flip once more and fry for an additional 30 seconds, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

FETA SAUCE



Feta Sauce image

This sauce is meant to be served with kebabs, so would go great with any grilled meat. This recipe calls for Greek yogurt which is similar to plain yogurt, but thicker. You can thicken ordinary plain yogurt by lining a strainer with cheesecloth, placing yogurt inside and letting it drip for about 20 minutes or to desired thickness.

Categories     Sauce     Cheese     Dairy     No-Cook     Yogurt     Salad Dressing     Feta     Spring     Winter     Kosher     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes about 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 3 ounces)
1/2 cup plain yogurt
2 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Using fork, mash feta cheese in small bowl. Mix in remaining ingredients. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand 30 minutes to allow flavors to develop. (Sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality feta cheese. Look for feta that is creamy and has a slightly crumbly texture. Avoid feta that is dry or hard.
  • Crumble the feta cheese before adding it to the sauce. This will help the cheese to evenly distribute throughout the sauce and prevent it from clumping.
  • Use a food processor or blender to make the sauce. This will help to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • Add some herbs or spices to the sauce to give it extra flavor. Some good options include oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, garlic, or lemon zest.
  • Serve the sauce immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The sauce can be served with pita bread, crackers, vegetables, or grilled meats.

Conclusion:

Feta dipping sauce is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With its creamy texture and tangy flavor, feta dipping sauce is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
