Equipment

  • 1 frying pan
  • 1 box grater/food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large zucchinis grated and strained
  • 2 cups broccoli food processed
  • 1/2 Cup Mint
  • 1 tsp onion
  • 1/2 cup chickpea flour
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup dill
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Tzatziki Sauce

  • 3/4 cup yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/4 cup cucumber grated and strained
  • 1 tbsp lemon
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp dill
  • 1 tsp mint

Instructions
 

  • Using either a box grater or a food processor, shred your zucchini
    Wrap the zucchini in a kitchen towel. Squeeze and twist over the sink to drain as much water as possible.
    Place the zucchini into a large bowl. Add the grated parmesan, eggs, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic. Mix well.
    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Spoon rounded tablespoonfuls of the batter onto the skillet and flatten to about 1/4 inch thick. Fry for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil if needed.
    Drain the zucchini fritters on paper towels. Serve with sour cream and parsley.
  • Place shredded zucchini in a medium bowl and sprinkle some salt on it
  • Leave to rest for 20 minutes and work on your broccoli
  • Gather all the rest of your ingredients and mix together in a large bowl
  • Squeeze your shredded zucchini from the moisture with a paper towel or cheese cloth
  • Add it to your bowl with the other ingredients including shredded broccoli.
  • Heat a frying pan with your oil and allow it to come to hot
  • Add your fritters that you've formed into the oil and space your fritters so the pan is not crowded
  • Place your finished fritters in a plate prepared with a paper towel on top
  • Make your tzatziki sauce and serve immediately
