Step 1

Shred zucchini with the large holes of a box grater. Toss with salt and place in a colander over a bowl. Let zucchini stand 30 minutes.

Step 2

Place zucchini in a large, clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible. Place in a medium bowl. Add feta, scallions, panko, Parmesan, dill, garlic, oregano, and egg; stir gently to combine.

Step 3

Line a large baking sheet with wax paper or parchment. Mold zucchini mixture into 32 packed tablespoonful-size “tater-tot” shapes. Spray with cooking spray.

Step 4

Preheat an air fryer to 375°F for 5 minutes. Place about half the tots in air fryer basket and cook at 375°F until golden and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining tots. Serve immediately.
