Preparation
1
Prepare the vegetables: Grate the zucchini and carrots using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible. This is crucial for crispy fritters.
2
Make the fritter batter: In a large bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, grated carrots, eggs, almond flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3
Prepare the herb yogurt: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, chopped fresh chives, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Stir until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
4
Cook the fritters: Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the fritter mixture into the pan, gently flattening them into disc shapes (about 2-3 inches wide). Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
5
Flip and finish: Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
6
Serve: Serve the warm zucchini carrot fritters immediately with a generous dollop of the fresh herb yogurt on top or on the side.
