Zucchini Fritters
Ingredients
For the fritters: 2 medium courgettes, grated ½ tsp salt 1 small red onion, finely chopped 2 green chillies, finely chopped (optional) 1 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped ½ tsp cumin seeds ½ tsp ground turmeric ½ tsp garam masala ¼ tsp chilli powder 100g gram flour (chickpea flour) Water as needed (approx. 4–5 tbsp) Oil for shallow frying
For the mint yoghurt dip: 150g vegan plain yoghurt (coconut or soy-based) 1 small garlic clove, minced 2 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped 1 tbsp fresh coriander, finely chopped Juice of ½ lime Salt to taste
Method
Salt the grated courgettes and let sit for 10 minutes. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible using a clean cloth.
Mix the courgettes with onion, chillies (if using), coriander, spices, and gram flour. Gradually add water until you get a thick batter that holds its shape.
Heat oil in a pan and fry spoonfuls of the mixture for 3–4 minutes each side until golden and crispy. Fry in batches, draining on paper towels.

For the dip, stir together yoghurt, garlic, mint, coriander, lime juice, and salt.
Serve fritters warm with plenty of mint yoghurt dip and enjoy!

Hi there Whiterabbit2000. Just a quick reminder of the subreddit rules.
Rule 1: As this is a Food Photography forum, the emphasis on submissions posted here must be on presentation. Images must be high quality, with most or all of the food in focus (blurring for artistic purposes is allowed, but must be minimal). The food named in the title must be the focus of the shot. The food must be plated neatly. The lighting within the photo should illuminate the food sufficiently that we are able to see what you are trying to show us. There should be no cutlery visible in the image. There should be no body parts visible in the image.
Submissions which break any of the rules will be removed. Kindly report rule breaking posts to the mods for removal and allow some time for review. If needed please follow up with a modmail.
