- Ingredients:

- Yields:
-
45 fritters
ingredients
- 300 g zucchini
- 4 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 200 g halloumi cheese, coarsely grated
- 1⁄4 cup plain flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, plus sprigs, for garnish
- salt, to taste
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- 1⁄4 cup oil
- 1 lemon, cut into very thin slices, seeds removed
- 1⁄3 cup yoghurt, thick, creamy Greek-style preferred
directions
- Coarsely grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible in your hands.
- Combine the zucchini with the spring onion, haloumi, flour, eggs and dill, and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based, preferably non-stick pan, form fritters from the mixture (by using heaped teaspoons full of the mixture for each fritter), and cook in batches for 2 minutes each side, or until golden and firm; and drain on paper kitchen towels.
- Cut each slice of lemon into quarters or eighths, depending on the size of the lemons, so that one piece can be placed as a triangle on top of each fritter.
- Top each fritter with 1/2 a teaspoon of yoghurt, a triangular-shaped piece of lemon and a small sprig of dill.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
