Steps

1To make the lemon mint yogurt, mix the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, zest and mint leaves together and season well.
2For the zucchini ribbons, slice 1 zucchini lengthways into long ribbons using a mandolin (see optional below). Set a chargrill over a high heat and grill for a few minutes each side or until nicely charred. Place on a plate, drizzle with olive oil and season well. Toss to coat and set aside.
3For the waffles, coarsely grate the remaining zucchini on a box grater and place into a bowl. Mix in 1 teaspoon of salt and leave for 10 minutes to allow the liquid to be drawn out. Squeeze the zucchini dry then place into the middle of a clean tea towel. Squeeze until dry then place into a mixing bowl. Add the potato, fetta, egg, flour, baking powder, shallots, dill and lemon zest. Season and mix well.
4Spray a mini waffle maker with olive oil and add ¼ of the mixture. Cook until cooked through, crispy and browned. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Transfer the waffles to plates.
5Top with grilled zucchini ribbons and serve with yogurt, mint leaves, dill and lemon wedges.
