100 g cucumber, grated
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp salt, divided
540 g zucchini, grated and squeezed dry

Step by step
Add yogurt, 2 tablespoons of the mint, grated cucumber, lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon salt into the Stand Mixer bowl with Flat Beater Accessory attached.
Beat the ingredients on medium speed until creamy. Scrape yogurt dip into a serving bowl and chill until serving.
In the same Stand Mixer bowl (no need to rinse) combine zucchini, flour, feta, remaining half of the mint, dill, garlic, eggs, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Mix on low speed with the Flat Beater Accessory until combined, scraping sides of bowl if needed.
Heat 2-4 tablespoons of olive oil in a saute pan over medium-low heat. Scoop ¼ of zucchini mixture into oil, pressing into fritter shape, and let fry 3-4 minutes per side. Serve fritters with mint yogurt dip.
