Crispy Zucchini Balls on a Bed of Fragrant Rice with Creamy Garlic Sauce
Ingredients:
2 medium zucchinis, grated
1 cup cooked rice
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for frying
For the Garlic Sauce:
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt to taste
Fresh dill, chopped (optional)
Directions:
Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, cooked rice, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, beaten egg, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a walnut.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Fry the zucchini balls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per batch.
Transfer the zucchini balls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
For the garlic sauce, mix the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and dill (if using) in a small bowl.
Serve the zucchini balls over a bed of cooked rice with a generous drizzle of garlic sauce on top.
