Number Of Ingredients 23

Garlic Yogurt:
1/2 cup plain yogurt (not Greek)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon honey
1 garlic clove, finely grated
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
Fritters and assembly:
2 small zucchini, ends trimmed
1 small russet potato, peeled
1/2 medium onion
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint, plus more for serving
Freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Olive oil (for serving)

Steps:

  • Garlic Yogurt:
  • Mix yogurt, mint, lemon juice, oil, honey, and garlic in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Cover; chill.
  • Fritters and assembly:
  • Grate zucchini, potato, and onion on the large holes of a box grater. Transfer to a mesh sieve set over a bowl and toss with 2 teaspoons salt. Let vegetables sit until they release their liquid, 30-40 minutes.
  • Mix eggs, garlic, cumin, 3 tablespoons parsley, and 2 tablespoons mint in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  • Gather up half of zucchini mixture in a kitchen towel; squeeze out excess liquid. Add to bowl with egg mixture and repeat with remaining zucchini mixture. Sprinkle flour and baking powder over; mix gently.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, spoon scoops of mixture into skillet, flattening gently with a spatula. Cook until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack; season with salt. Drizzle yogurt sauce with olive oil and top with more herbs; serve alongside warm fritters.

These fritters were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the fritters turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The garlic yogurt sauce was also delicious.

These fritters were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but these fritters were surprisingly good! The herbs and spices really helped to mask the zucchini flavor. I would definitely make these again.

Not bad! The fritters were a bit bland for my taste, but the yogurt sauce helped to add some flavor. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices to the fritters next time.
