Turkish Zucchini Fritters
Crisp-edged Turkish-style zucchini fritters, known as mücver, flavored with feta, green onions, dill, and parsley.
Instructions
-
Step 1
Coarsely grate the zucchini into a colander. Toss with the salt and leave the colander over a mixing bowl to drain.
-
Step 2
Working in handfuls, squeeze the zucchini firmly over the bowl until very little liquid comes out. Discard the liquid and dry the bowl.
-
Step 3
Add the eggs, flour, feta, green onions, dill, parsley, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir until evenly combined.
-
Step 4
Fold the squeezed zucchini into the egg mixture until no dry flour remains.
-
Step 5
Add the olive oil to a large frying pan and heat over medium heat until shimmering.
-
Step 6
Spoon small portions of batter into the pan and flatten them into fritters about 1 cm thick. Fry in batches until deep golden and set, about 3 minutes per side.
-
Step 7
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate and let them rest briefly before serving warm.
