Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis grated
  • 2 eggs
  • 200 g feta crumbled
  • ¾ cup Panko breadcrumbs you can use plain flour instead if you don't have any
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup chopped mint leaves
  • 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves

Instructions

  • Place grated zucchini in a mesh strainer over a bowl. Sprinkle with a little salt and stir to evenly distribute it. Let the zucchini sit for 5-10 minutes then place the zucchini in a flat layer on sheets of paper towel. Cover with another layer of paper towel and press to remove as much water as possible.
  • Meanwhile preheat oven to 180C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • In a bowl combine zucchini, eggs, feta cheese, breadcrumbs, baking powder, mint and parsley.
  • Shape 2 tbsp of mixture into patties and place them on the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.
  • Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden.

Notes

  • Serve 2-3 of these fritters with a little salad or a few cherry tomatoes and a dollop of Greek yoghurt or tzatziki dressing. They freeze well and can be eaten as a snack, too!
  • If you're feeding others, 2 bariatric serves are equal to one regular, non-sleeved serve. Use the slider above to adjust the serving sizes you need.
