Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Halve snacking tomatoes.
• Roughly chop kalamata olives.
• Thinly slice red onion (see ingredients).
• Grate zucchini and squeeze out any excess moisture 
using a paper towel.  

Pickle the onion
2

• In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar 
and a good pinch of sugar and salt.
• Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add it 
to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover 
onion. Set aside.

Make the fritter mixture
3

• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine zucchini, 
Cheddar cheese, chermoula spice blend, the plain 
flour, egg, salt and a pinch of pepper.
• Crumble in half the fetta cubes, stirring to combine.
TIP: Removing excess liquid from the zucchini will help 
the fritters crisp up in the pan! 
TIP: Lift out some of the mixture with a spoon. If it’s too 
wet and doesn’t hold its shape, add a little more flour!  

Cook the fritters
4

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with 
enough olive oil to coat the base.
• When oil is hot, add heaped tablespoons of fritter 
mixture in batches and flatten with a spatula. Cook 
until golden, 3-4 minutes each side (don’t flip too 
early!).
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. You should get 
3-4 fritters per person.
TIP: Add extra olive oil between batches as needed. 

Make the tzatziki
5

• While the fritters are cooking, finely chop cucumber.
• Roughly chop dill.
• In a second medium bowl, combine Greek-style 
yoghurt, cucumber, dill and a drizzle of olive oil. 
Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

Finish & serve
6

• Drain pickled onion.
• In a large bowl, combine gourmet leaf mix, 
tomatoes, pickled onion, kalamata olives and a 
drizzle of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Season 
to taste.
• Divide zucchini and fetta fritters and Greek salad 
between plates. 
• Top with remaining fetta cubes and dollop over dill 
tzatziki to serve. Enjoy!
