INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound zucchini, grated
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt or 3/4 teaspoon table salt
  • 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup chopped pine nuts
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano leaves, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly milled black pepper
  • Olive oil

DIRECTIONS

Combine the grated zucchini and kosher salt. Set aside for 5 minutes (no more, or it will be mush). Rinse in cold water and squeeze dry in a kitchen towel or press in a strainer or colander until dry.



Combine the cheese, egg, green onions, flour, pine nuts, dill, oregano, garlic, and pepper in a large bowl; fold in the zucchini. Form into 24 small cakes (about 2 tablespoons of mixture for each) and saute in olive oil, turning once, until browned, about 3 minutes on each side. Serve immediately.
