Squash pancakes

2 servings

20 minutes

Patisson pancakes are a fragrant and delicate dish rooted in Greek culinary traditions. Greeks have always valued simple yet flavorful recipes that combine the freshness of vegetables with spicy seasonings. These pancakes, made from grated patissons with turmeric, cumin, and coriander, have an amazing balance of sweetness and mild spiciness. Fried in olive oil, they acquire an appetizing crispy crust, while the tangy yogurt sauce with garlic and dill adds a refreshing touch. Patisson pancakes are perfect for a light lunch or as an appetizer on a festive table.
