These unbelievable delicious traditional Greek zucchini patties are made with plenty of herbs and feta and are so easy to make.

Zucchini is one of my favorite vegetables, and that is probably not a popular choice, I know. But, hold on, in Greek cuisine they are somehow transformed from a watery tasteless vegetable to a delicious meal or appetizer. The secret lies in the ingredients and the method of cooking: roasting with tomato like they do in Crete, or in the famous Briami where they are roasted in olive oil along with potatoes, eggplant and tomatoes, with phyllo in a delicious zucchini pie and of course fried. I find that for an appetizer zucchini is best fried. Of the most popular appetizers ordered among Greeks are fried zucchini chips (tiganita kolokithakia) and zucchini fritters (kolokithokeftedes).
