🛒 Ingredients (13 pieces):
🔸 850 g zucchini (preferably Magda kind) (30.3 oz)
🔹 100 g all-purpose flour (⅔ cup)
🔸 1 carrot
🔹 5 g baking powder (1 tsp)
🔸 2 eggs
🔹 ½ tsp salt
🔸 ½ tsp ground pepper
🔹 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
🔸 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
🔹 3 or 4 thin spring onions (if you can't find them, you can use spring garlic, as has been my case).
To accompany:
🔸 250 g Greek yogurt (⅔ cup)
🔹 1 tbsp lemon juice
*** For best results, it is advisable to follow the quantity of ingredients in grams.
🍳 Directions:
1️⃣ Wash zucchini thoroughly and pat dry. Remove the ends and grate them. Peel the carrot and grate it too. Add a little salt on top, mix well and let stand for 10 minutes.
2️⃣ Meanwhile, chop the dill and parsley. And also cut the spring onion into slices.
3️⃣ Drain the zucchini very well with your hands or, if you prefer, with a cloth. Put them in a bowl. Add the chives, dill, parsley, salt, pepper and the two beaten eggs. Mix everything very well with a spoon.
4️⃣ Stir in the flour and baking powder. Mix until well blended.
5️⃣ In a frying pan, put a finger of oil and heat it over medium heat without smoking. Put the size of a heaped spoonful of mixture per unit and fry them to give them the shape of a thick pancake. Fry the mücver on both sides until golden brown and place them on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
6️⃣ Serve them hot or warm, accompanied by Greek yogurt mixed with lemon (it gives a very rich fresh taste).
👌 Notes:
🥒This is a traditional recipe that everyone prepares according to their tastes. There are some versions without carrots, others that add grated potato or feta cheese. There are also those who add some chopped mint leaves.
🥒The same goes for yogurt sauce. Mostly, fresh chopped garlic is added, but some prefer it on its own. I like it with the fresh hint of lemon, which contrasts with the intense spicy flavor of the mücver.
The traditional way to prepare them is fried, but you can also bake them in the oven in a lighter version.
