Preparation
Grate the zucchini and press it through a colander (or a clean tea towel) to remove as much water as possible.
Place the grated, drained zucchini in a bowl and add the salt, pepper, egg, flour and crumbled feta.
Mix well to obtain a homogeneous batter.
Shape your fritters with a tablespoon and place on oiled parchment paper in the Air Fryer tray. Bake at 370°F (190°C) for 20 minutes in "Air Fry" mode, turning halfway through.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt, feta, mint, lemon, salt and pepper.
And now the zucchini fritters are ready!
