Provided by Jennifer Segal, adapted from Cooks Illustrated

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 12 Fritters

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound zucchini (about 2 medium), trimmed
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
2 scallions, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 medium garlic clove, minced or pressed through a garlic press
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour (or cornstarch)
½ teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if necessary
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Shred the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater or in a food processor fitted with the shredding disk. Transfer the zucchini to a fine mesh strainer and set over a bowl. Toss the zucchini with the salt and let it sit for 10 minutes. Wring all of the excess liquid out of the zucchini with your hands, then set aside.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Mix in the dried zucchini, scallions, dill, feta, garlic and black pepper. Sprinkle the flour (or corn starch) and baking powder over mixture and stir until uniformly incorporated.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Drop 2-tablespoon sized portions into the pan, then use the back of a spoon to gently press the batter into 2-inch-wide fritters. Pan-fry until golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate. Add a bit more oil to the pan if necessary, then repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm or room temperature with lemon wedges.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cooked fritters can be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat them on a cookie sheet in a 200°F oven until heated through.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegan Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound baby zucchini, halved or quartered lengthwise
Kosher salt
1/2 cup lightly packed dill sprigs
1 cup distilled white vinegar, plus more if needed
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
3 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
1 jalapeño or serrano pepper, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss zucchini with 2 tablespoons salt; let stand 20 minutes. Cover with ice and water, weighting down with a plate, if necessary, to keep zucchini fully submerged. Let stand 1 hour. Drain in a colander; rinse to remove excess salt. Pack zucchini and dill into a 4-cup-capacity or two 2-cup-capacity jars.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar; 2/3 cup water; mustard, cumin, and celery seeds; garlic; jalapeño; sugar; and 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Carefully pour into jar with zucchini and dill. Top with more vinegar, if necessary. (Liquid should fully submerge zucchini mixture and reach about 1/2 inch from top.) Let cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 month or try canning with our helpful instructions.
