Ingredients
  • Sweet Potato and Zucchini Fritters
  • 2 cups shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup shredded sweet potato
  • ½ cup finely chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
  • ⅔ cup cornmeal
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
Herb Yogurt Sauce
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 1-2 tbsp. minced fresh chives
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, make your fritters. Mix together zucchini, sweet potato, onion, garlic, parsley, cornmeal, salt, eggs, cornstarch, and pepper. Let sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the zucchini to release its moisture, then mix again.
  2. Prepare your yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, mix together yogurt, lemon juice, and chives. Season with salt and pepper and adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Heat oil in a large skillet. I like to cover the bottom of the pan by about half an inch.
  4. Place about ½ cup of batter into the pan and cook until golden brown before flipping and cooking on the other side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
  5. Serve immediately topped with yogurt sauce. Enjoy!
