What is Zucchini carrot egg cheese fritter?
The zucchini carrot egg cheese fritter is a Turkish-style take on mücver, made by combining grated zucchini and carrot with egg, cheese and a fritter mixture, then cooking it in small rounds. It brings together tender vegetables and a savoury, cheesy centre.
The outside is lightly browned while the middle stays soft. In Turkey, mücver is often served as part of a meal or alongside yogurt; it also works well as a snack or a simple lunch for English-speaking readers.
