Ingredients

The following ingredients have 7 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 3 cups grated zucchini
  • ¾ to 1 cup chickpea flour (see tip in intro)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons chives or sliced green onions (green portion only)
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon dill seed (see tip in intro)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Stir together lemon juice and tahini. In a large bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients and pour over the lemon-tahini mixture. Combine with a spoon or spatula until you have a uniform mixture. As the zucchini releases moisture (from the added salt), the chickpea flour will absorb that liquid. Allow mixture to sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop a portion of the mixture (about ¼ cup) onto the skillet. Use a spatula to flatten it into a fritter shape. Cook on one side for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden. Flip and cook for another 2 to 4 minutes, until golden on both sides and cooked through. If the fritters are browning too quickly, reduce the heat to allow the centers to cook more fully.
