​​How to Make Zucchini Fritters with Greek Yogurt Dip

1. Start by grating the zucchinis into a bowl and sprinkling them with salt. Let them sit for about 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
2. Afterward, squeeze the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel to remove as much liquid as possible.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained zucchini with flour, Parmesan, beaten egg, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
4. Mix until well combined. In a skillet, heat a few tablespoons of oil over medium heat.
5. Once hot, scoop spoonfuls of the zucchini mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly with a spatula.
6. Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
7. Remove them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
8. For the dip, mix Greek yogurt with lemon juice and dill in a small bowl until smooth.
9. Serve the fritters warm with the Greek yogurt dip on the side.
