Mücver - Fried zucchini pancakes

Mücver is a Turkish fritter or pancake, made from grated zucchini. They are typically pan-fried in oil although there are healthier versions that we make in the oven with less oil. Today, I went all in and fried them 😅 Honestly, everything tastes better when they are fried. Mücver is very similar to latkes or potato pancakes from many different cultures and I like to eat mine dipped in yoghurt 😍

Enjoy! 🔥

Ingredients serve for 8 small pancakes:

• 1 big zucchini (~450g) grated • 1 medium carrot grated • 1 handful finely chopped dill • 1 handful finely chopped chives or green onions • 2 eggs • 6-7 tbsp flour • 1 tsp baking powder • Salt and pepper to taste • Sunflower oil to fry

👩🏻‍🍳 Mix all the ingredients and fry until it is golden.

⚠️ Squeeze the water of zucchini and carrot with a clean kitchen cloth before mix them in the batter.

⚠️ Make sure that your oil is veeery veeery hot before you start frying your pancakes, make a dummy test by putting a tsp of batter in the oil. If it starts to fry immediately your oil is ready, if not wait more.
