Zuccchini Fritters (Kolokithopita)

These tasty fritters are very easy to prepare and can be served as one of several side dishes - they go nicely with Tzatziki - or as a light snack on their own.

Ingredients

½ kg zucchini
1 medium onion grated
150g feta cheese crumbled
4 tablespoons breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
3 medium size eggs – preferably free range
200 ml sunflower oil
Salt and pepper

Preparation

Grate the zucchini and put it in a colander. Sprinkle salt on top and leave it to drain for 1 hour.

Beat the eggs lightly and place in a mixing bowl.

Add the rest of the ingredients.

Drain the zucchini well between the palms of your hands and add to the mixture.

Mix all the ingredients lightly.

Put the oil in a frying pan and heat well.

To make each fritter use a tablespoon to take a scoop from the mixture and with the aid of another spoon push it into the frying pan.

Fry the fritters for a few minutes until they are nicely browned.

Continue until all the mixture has been used.
