Recipe: Zucchini and fetta fritters

April 24, 2016 by Shari

We love a zucchini fritter – I feel like you can serve them up for breakfast, lunch or dinner with a little tweeking. Think about serving them with a poached egg and a little crispy bacon for breakfast, as is for lunch and maybe add a simple salad for a super quick and healthy dinner option.

When we were away on holidays with some friends, I brought the ingredients to whip up these zucchini and fetta fritters for brunch one day.

Expect when I was whisking up the batter, I completely forgot to add the fetta into the mixture. I love the addition of fetta, so decided to mix it into the youghurt dressing {and you know what, it works well too}.

Veggies ready for my Zucchini and Fetta fritters by GoodFoodWeek

ZUCCHINI AND FETTA FRITTERS

4 large zucchinis
2 small carrots
3 spring onions
3 cloves of garlic
1/2 bunch of parsley
1/2 bunch of dill
300 grams of fetta
2 medium eggs
1/4 – 1/2 cup of flour {depending on how wet your mixture is}.
Olive oil

Grate the zucchini and carrots into a large bowl. Mix with the chopped spring onions, garlic, parsley and dill. Whisk together the fetta and eggs, before adding into the mixture. Add the flour slowly, until the mixture comes together.

Heat a large pan with a little oil. Drop 1/4 cup scoops of zucchini and fetta mixture into the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until brown and then flip. Cook the patties until cooked through and repeat with the remaining mixture.

HERBY YOGHURT DRESSING

250 grams of greek yoghurt
1/2 bunch of parsley
1/2 bunch of dill
1 tbsp of tahini
1 lemon
1 tbsp of olive oil
sea salt

Simply mix the chop herbs, tahini, lemon juice, oil and salt into the greek yoghurt and you’re done. Serve along side the zucchini fritters.

    Love how many veggies you have in these Shari! and the feta for extra flavour – yum!

      I really feel like the fetta is a game changer. A great way to get a couple of servings of veggies into everyone {not that I have many issues with my boys eating veggies – their favourite snacks are avocados or slices of red capsicum}.

    These are definitely going to be made at our house very soon. Love a zucchini fritter. We do the one family meal – my kids are a bit older now but I started it very young at least using the same ingredients in everyones meal even if some were pureed! Thanks so much for linking up with YWF too. x

      You’re most welcome Vicki – the fetta is the secret ingredient, it really takes the zucchini fritter to the next level.

    Yum! We’re huge fan of fritters in this house and that dressing sounds delicious… Everything is better with tahini!

    These look perrrrrrrrrrrrfeeeeeeeeect! <3

    One family meals are definitely so important – not only for expanding your little ones' taste buds – but for keeping you sane too! No one wants to feel like a short order cook!

      Thanks Kristy – they are pretty delicious! I find that the little ones are more likely to give something a try if all of the adults are also eating it.

Family meals for my tribe of 6
Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new foll Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new followers of late. I wonder if you’re here because of my reels?? (And if so, you’ll probably also want to follow @smallbusinessgrowthclub )

If you are new… here is a little intro… I’m Shari - a mum of four small boys (although their little hands seem to be getting better and bigger). They are nine, seven, five and three.

I whip up quick and easy meals for my family. I currently work full time and so the content juggle is real 😩

But the thing is, I actually also have a blog - www.GoodFoodWeek.com.au - so you can drop by there for some of my tried and tested favourites. I’m fact, this Spanish beef is one of the most viewed recipes on the blog!

And if you aren’t new - I’d love to hear what are some of your favourite recipes from my blog.

I feel like the boys have had an overload of chocolate and I want to take it back to healthier alternatives… 

But in our household, I feel like everyone goes through stages. One week they’ll eat all the bananas in one day, so the following week I’ll order 3kgs instead of 1kg and no one will eat banana 🤦🏼‍♀️

I mean, I freeze them for smoothies or make banana bread so they don’t go to waste. 

But I’m keen to hear what snacks are popular in your household at the moment?

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
