Instructions

1. Trim the tips off the zucchini, then finely grate them on a box grater. Put the shredded zucchini in a colander set over a bowl, salt it, and leave for 10 minutes.
2. Whisk the flour and cornstarch in a large bowl. Make a well, crack in the egg and whisk it, then gradually whisk in the chilled club soda to a smooth batter.
3. Stir the chopped onion, grated garlic, paprika and chives into the batter. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Squeeze as much water as possible out of the zucchini using a cheesecloth or flour sack towel.
5. Add the squeezed zucchini and the shredded cheese to the batter and mix once more.
6. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
7. Once the oil is hot, spoon in batter and gently flatten each portion. Space them in a single layer and cook in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
8. Drain the fritters on a wire rack set over paper towels.
9. Crush the chopped garlic in a mortar with the saffron and a pinch of salt until smooth. Mix in the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice and olive oil, then season lightly with salt and pepper and whisk.
10. Spoon the dipping sauce into a serving dish, arrange the fritters around it, scatter chopped chives on top, and serve at once.
