Prepare the Zucchini: Start by washing and peeling the zucchini. Cut them in half lengthwise and remove any seeds. This will help avoid excess moisture in your mixture.

Grate the zucchini using a fine grater. This will make it easier to mix with the other ingredients and help the chops hold together.

Drain the Zucchini: Transfer the grated zucchini to a colander and sprinkle with salt. This step helps draw out excess moisture from the zucchini.

Stir the zucchini and let it sit for about 15 minutes. The salt will help the zucchini release water, which you will need to drain off later.

Prepare Other Vegetables: While the zucchini is draining, grate the carrot and potatoes on a fine grater. This will ensure they blend well with the zucchini and other ingredients.

Chop the spring onions finely. They will add a mild, fresh onion flavor to the mixture.

Combine the Vegetables: After 15 minutes, squeeze the grated zucchini to remove any excess liquid. You can use a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth for this.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained zucchini, grated carrot, grated potatoes, and chopped spring onions.

Add Binding Ingredients: Beat the eggs in a separate bowl and then add them to the vegetable mixture. The eggs will help bind the ingredients together.

Add the minced garlic and semolina to the bowl. The semolina will absorb excess moisture and add a nice texture to the chops.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything well to ensure even distribution of flavors.

Let the Mixture Rest: Allow the mixture to sit for about 15 minutes. This will give the semolina time to swell and help the mixture bind together better.

Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, minced garlic, and dill. This creamy sauce will complement the zucchini chops beautifully.

Shape and Fry the Chops: Form the vegetable mixture into small patties or chops. You can shape them using your hands or a spoon, depending on your preference.

Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry each chop for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Bake the Chops: Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F).

Place the fried chops in a baking dish. This step ensures that they cook through and become fully crispy.

Bake the chops in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. This will help set their shape and ensure they are cooked thoroughly.

Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the chops from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Serve the zucchini chops warm with the creamy garlic dill sauce on the side or drizzled on top. They make a delicious and hearty addition to any meal.
