Preparation Steps
- Wash zucchini, cut off ends, and grate them using a box grater. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 15-30 minutes in a colander.
- Squeeze out excess moisture from the drained zucchini with a clean kitchen towel.
- In a mixing bowl, combine beaten eggs, sliced green onions, crumbled feta, fresh mint, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Gradually add self-rising flour, stirring slowly until you achieve a soft dough consistency. Avoid over-mixing.
- Heat olive oil in a deep skillet or fryer until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
- Drop tablespoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove balls from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Notes
For a healthier option, you can bake the zucchini balls at 400°F for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
