Zucchini Fritters with Garlic Yogurt Sauce is a delicious and healthy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with fresh zucchini, garlic, yogurt, and a few other simple ingredients that come together to create a flavorful and satisfying dish.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
For the Zucchini Fritters:
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil, for frying
For the Garlic Yogurt Sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
To start, grate the zucchinis and place them in a large bowl. Add the flour, Parmesan cheese, parsley, dill, garlic, eggs, salt, and pepper, and mix well to combine. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Using a spoon, drop the zucchini mixture into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
While the fritters are cooking, make the garlic yogurt sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Mix well to combine and set aside.
Once the fritters are done, remove them from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve the fritters hot with the garlic yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
These Zucchini Fritters with Garlic Yogurt Sauce are a perfect appetizer for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with flavor. The garlic yogurt sauce adds a tangy and creamy element that perfectly complements the fritters. This dish is vegetarian, gluten-free, and can be made vegan by using a plant-based yogurt.
