Vegan Greek zucchini fritters

Vegan Greek zucchini fritters are a beautiful mezze dish. Traditionally, they contain eggs and feta, but we’ve managed to veganise ours to a great effect.

1 kg / 35 oz zucchini or courgettes, coarsely grated (8 cups grated)
2 spring onions, thinly chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
zest of 1 lemon
2 tsp salt, more to taste
generous amount of black pepper
2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped
1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
2 tbsp capers, blotted in a paper towel and chopped (optional)
¼ cup reduced aquafaba OR 2 tbsp ground flax seed
about ½ cup wholemeal flour, or rice flour for gluten-free version
about ¼ cup breadcrumbs, gluten-free for gluten-free version
olive oil, for frying
vegan yoghurt OR cashew cream OR avocado cream, to serve
