Greek Tomato Feta Fritters (Domatokeftethes) image

I'm showing you my take on domatokeftethes. These are incredibly delicious, versatile, and inexpensive, and they make a perfect summertime appetizer. Serve with freshly squeezed lemon, tzatziki sauce, or just plain Greek yogurt seasoned with raw minced garlic and lemon juice to taste.

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.
