Zucchini Patties with Peas, Feta, and Dill

A great idea for a quick summer snack. To further shorten the preparation time, we used thawed peas, but you can also use fresh peas, though they need to be cooked beforehand. Enjoy the patties with a large bowl of salad, or they are also excellent with a creamy or yogurt-based sauce, which youll happily dip them into.

Ingredients

  • 125 ml Milk, whole milk

  • 2 piece Egg, fresh

  • 1 pinch Salt, table

  • 125 g Wheat flour, white, multi-purpose

  • 2 piece Small pumpkins

  • 1 cup Beans, fresh

  • 75 g Cheese, feta

  • pieces Dill, fresh

  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest, fresh

  • pieces Spices, pepper, black

  • pieces Oil, olive

Steps

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and salt with a hand whisk. Gradually add the flour while mixing until you get a smooth batter without lumps.

  2. Rinse the dill sprigs under running water if necessary, shake them dry, and chop them coarsely. Clean the zucchinis, wash them, and grate them coarsely. Squeeze the grated zucchinis well with your hands, then add them to the bowl with the batter. Add the thawed peas, chopped dill, grated lemon zest, and crumbled feta cheese. Mix everything well with a spoon and season the mixture to taste.

  3. Place a pan on the stove and heat a little oil. Spoon the mixture onto the hot oil and gently press it down with the back of the spoon to form evenly thick small patties. When they turn golden brown on the bottom, flip them with a spatula and cook the other side (about 2 to 3 minutes on each side).

  4. Transfer the cooked patties to a warmed plate and cover them to keep them warm. Repeat the process until all the mixture is used.

  5. Serve the patties with lemon wedges, a sauce of your choice, and/or a large bowl of salad.

Advice

In season, you can use fresh peas instead of frozen ones, but they need to be cooked in salted water before use. Dill can be replaced with parsley, basil, or mint.
