ZUCCHINI AND SUMAC FRITTERS

These are delicious hot or cold and versatile as a light lunch or snack . Place 185 ml of Greek yoghurt in a bowl with 2 tbs of tahini , 1 tbs of lemon juice and 1/2 tsp of paprika whisk until well combined . Cover and place in the refrigerator . Use the grating blade of your processor to grate 300gm of zucchini and grate 1 whole onion . Put the grated onion and zucchini into a bowl and sprinkle 1/2 tsp of salt , mix well and leave to sit for 10 minutes , this will help draw the moisture out . Strain the zucchini and onion through a seive , squeezing out as much of the liquid as possible . Now add 3 tbs of minced garlic , 3 lightly beaten eggs ,60 gm of self raing flour , the grated zest of 1 lemon , 4 tbs of finely chopped parsley , 2 tbs of dill ,3 tbs of sumac , 1/2 tsp of all spice to the zucchini and onion mixture Mix well to combine . Add 100 gm of crumbled feta cheese .(Greek feta ) Ok now heat a 1/4 cup of rice bran oil , I used 2 tbs of ghee and heat over a moderate heat till the oil /ghee bubbles around the edge of the pan . Form fritters by shaping 3 tbs of the mixture into a pattie / fritter shape . Make sure the fritters are far enough apart so they dont touch . Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side Repeat with remaining mixture . Serve the fritters either warm or cold with the paprika and tahini yoghurt . DELICIOUS !!!
