Ingredients
  

  • For the Zucchini Fritters:
  • 2 medium zucchinis grated
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for frying
  • For the Topping:
  • 4 oz smoked salmon
  • 1 ripe avocado diced
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • Pinch of sugar
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
  • 1-2 tbsp fresh dill or chives
  • Lemon wedges for serving optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Zucchini
  • Start by grating the zucchinis using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible or use your hand :). This step is crucial to ensure your fritters are crispy!
  • Make the Fritter Mixture
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, all-purpose flour, egg, minced garlic, granulated garlic, paprika, dill, salt and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined. The mixture should hold together but not be too wet; if needed, you can add a little more flour to achieve the right consistency.
  • Cook the Fritters
  • Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, spoon 1 - 2 tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the skillet for each fritter, flattening them slightly. Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to work in batches, adding more oil as necessary. After frying, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
  • Prepare the Topping
  • While the fritters are cooking, prepare the topping. In a small bowl, mix together the plain yogurt, minced garlic, granulated garlic, chopped dill, salt and pepper and a pinch of sugar. This will be your creamy garlic sauce
  • Assemble the Dish
  • Once the fritters are perfectly golden and crispy, transfer them to a serving platter. Begin by drizzling the creamy garlic yogurt sauce generously over the zucchini fritters. Next, artfully arrange the diced avocado on top, followed by delicate slices of smoked salmon, creating a beautiful and appetizing presentation. For a final touch, sprinkle fresh dill or chives over the entire dish, adding a burst of flavor and vibrant color.
  • Serve and Enjoy
  • Garnish the dish with lemon wedges for a zesty touch, if desired. Serve your delicious zucchini fritters warm, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures!
