While you’re waiting, prepare the tzatziki. Simply mix the yogurt, feta, garlic, olive oil and salt and pepper. Place in refrigerator.

3

Now take the zucchini and transfer to sieve, pressing out excess liquid; or as I do, place in salad spinner and spin the water out. Place zucchini in dry bowl.

4
Done

Mix in egg, yolk, 1/2 cup flour, feta and 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Mix in parsley, shallots, mint, and oregano. If batter is very wet, add more flour by spoonfuls.
