Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

350g yellow or green zucchini, grated

1/4 cup mint leaves, finely chopped

180g halloumi, grated

1 carrot, peeled, grated

1 teaspoon ground cumin, chilli flakes & dried oregano

3 tablespoons plain flour

2 eggs, beaten

Olive oil for frying

Garlic and Dill Yoghurt

125g thick Greek yoghurt

2 tablespoons dill, chopped

Juice of ½ lemon, zest reserved

Crispy, golden and impossible to resist, these zucchini, carrot and halloumi fritters by Helena Moursellas are packed with flavour in every bite. Served with a fresh garlic and dill yoghurt and seasoned with Maldon Sea Salt, they’re the kind of recipe you’ll find yourself making on repeat.

  1. To make the garlic and dill yoghurt, combine all the ingredients into a small bowl and season with Maldon Sea Salt flakes. Set aside.
  2. Place the grated zucchini over a clean tea towel or cloth and season with Maldon Sea Salt flakes and allow it to sit for 15 minutes to remove all the excess juice. Squeeze excess juice from the zucchini and discard.
  3. Transfer the zucchini mixture to a bowl with the mint, carrot, halloumi, spices, cracked pepper and season with Maldon Sea Salt flakes. Mix to combine, add eggs, flour, lemon zest and give it a good mix.
  4. Heat oil in a large non-stick fry pan over medium heat. Add a heaped tablespoon of the mixture and flatten a little with a spoon. Fry on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve fritters alongside garlic and dill yoghurt.
