Ingredients

西葫芦and haloumi fritters
  • 2 medium zucchini, coarsely grated
  • 2 tablespoon salt
  • 200 gram haloumi cheese, coarsely grated
  • 1/4 cup plain flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped mint leaves, plus extra to garnish
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/3 cup thick greek-style yoghurt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped mint leaves

Method

西葫芦and haloumi fritters
  • 1
    Place zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Set aside for 15 minutes. Rinse. Then squeeze out as much liquid as possible with your hands or in a clean tea towel.
  • 2
    In a bowl, combine zucchini with haloumi, flour, eggs, onion, juice and mini. Season to taste. Heat oil in a large heavy- based frying pan on high. Spoon heaped tablespoonfuls of mixture into pan, forming fritters, in 6 batches. Cook 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden and firm. Drain on paper towel.
  • 3
    In a small bowl, combine yoghurt and mint. Top each fritter with a dollop of yoghurt mixture and a small mint leaf.

Notes

Cook the fritters as close to serving time as possible as the haloumi can go tough.
