Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds zucchini about 2 to 3 medium to large zucchini
- 1 shallot finely diced
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- ½ cup almond flour
- ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil for frying
Garlic, Chive Yogurt Sauce:
- 1 cup PLAIN yogurt
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Grate the zucchini. Grate the zucchini and put into a bowl. Sprinkle with a bit of kosher salt, stir together and let stand for 20 minutes. The salt will work to draw the moisture out of the zucchini.
- Drain the zucchini. Squeeze out the liquid from the zucchini, with either a nut milk bag or cheesecloth, then return to a clean bowl.
- Mix together. Add the shallot, eggs, almond flour, goat cheese, salt and pepper. Then stir to combine.
- Fry the zucchini fritters. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Using either your hands or a spoon, dollop out mounds (approximately ¼ cup worth) of the mixture into the hot pan. Using a spatula, push down each fritter to flatten. Cook the fritters for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they're lightly golden. Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel to dab away any extra oil.
- Make the sauce. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the yogurt, garlic, chives, salt, and pepper.
- Serve. Serve the fritters with a dollop of the sauce, then enjoy!
