About the Recipe
These Broccoli Fritters offer a fun and flavorful twist on a simple vegetable. Grated broccoli is combined with cheese and a touch of flour to create golden brown patties with a satisfyingly crisp exterior. The accompanying creamy sauce, made with feta, Greek yogurt, and a hint of tahini and lemon, adds a tangy and refreshing counterpoint to the savory fritters. These are perfect as a light lunch, a side dish, or even a snack.
