Preparatory work:
- Grate the zucchini and place in a colander. Sprinkle the salt on top and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Squeeze excess liquid from the zucchini and place in a mixing bowl.
- Add the eggs, flour, Parmesan cheese, spring onions, garlic, baking powder and black pepper. Mix well.
- For the tzatziki dressing, mix the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, salt and pepper in a bowl. Place in the refrigerator until use.
Let's cook!
- Place a skillet on the plancha and add the vegetable oil. Heat the oil until it is hot enough.
- Scoop tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the hot oil and lightly flatten.
- Deep-fry the cookies for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain the cookies on paper towels and serve with the dip.
Suggestion
- Serve the zucchini cookies warm, with the tzatziki dressing as a dip. These cookies are also delicious as a side dish with grilled chicken or fish, and pair perfectly with a glass of crisp white wine.
