Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons of fresh dill and the juice of half a lemon. Stir well until smooth, then cover and refrigerate.
- Wash and trim the ends of 2 medium zucchinis, then coarsely grate them and sprinkle with salt. Let sit in a colander for about 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the grated zucchini using a clean dish towel or cheesecloth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained zucchini with 2 eggs, chopped green onions, and diced onion. Add chopped spearmint, dill, and crumbled feta, then mix gently.
- Gradually add ½ cup of self-raising flour into the mixture, folding it in carefully until just combined.
- Heat enough vegetable oil in a frying pan to cover the base by about 2 cm over medium-high heat until it reaches 170°C (340°F).
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying about 5-6 fritters at a time for 3-4 minutes each side until golden brown.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil, then serve warm with the yogurt dip.

Notes
To maintain crispiness, ensure leftover fritters are stored properly. Can be frozen for up to 2 months and reheated in the oven for best results.
