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}.
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.

Are you are fan of the zucchini fritter? Do you support ‘one family meals’ and hence a little baby led weaning? Where do you purchase your fresh produce from? If you choose to whip up one of my recipes , then I would love for you to share it on social media, and don’t forget to use the hashtag #goodfoodweek.
