Zucchini, Feta, and Spinach Fritters with Garlic Tzatziki Recipe

Zucchini, Feta, and Spinach Fritters with Garlic Tzatziki Directions:

1. Grate the zucchinis using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial for crispy fritters.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, chopped spinach, crumbled feta, onion, flour, breadcrumbs, eggs, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture comes together and is well combined. If the mixture seems too wet, you can add a bit more flour or breadcrumbs to help bind it.
3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the fritter mixture into the skillet, gently pressing them down with the back of the spoon to form patties. Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
4. While the fritters are cooking, make the tzatziki sauce. In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and dill. Stir well to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the garlic or lemon juice for extra flavor if desired.
5. Serve the fritters warm with a generous dollop of garlic tzatziki sauce on top or on the side for dipping.
