Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 kilo Santorini tomatoes or cherry tomatoes
  • 2 large red onions
  • 3 spring onions
  • 1 zucchini
  • 3 tbsp. finely chopped fresh spearmint
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped fresh basil
  • 250 gr. soy flour (self-rising flour)
  • 150 gr. hard flour
  • 1/4 cup Santorini split yellow pea fava meze (optional but recommended)
  • 1 tbsp. of baking soda
  • Salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. Cut the tomatoes in small pieces and put them in a large bowl. Grate the zucchini and one of the onions and put them also into the bowl. Then you must finely chop the other onion and the mint, basil and oregano and add them into the mixture together with the baking soda and the optional fava yellow pea .
  2. Add as much salt and pepper as you wish into the mixture in the bowl and mix all the ingredients very well. Then you must let the mixture rest in the fridge for about 5 hours.
  3. Finally, add the two types of flour and mix well, until the mixture becomes a thick dough. Use a spoon to cut the shape of each tomato ball and drop each spoonful into boiling oil to deep-fry them until they get that nice golden-brown colour. Drain and serve hot.
  4. Serve with Tzatziki sauce on the side.
