Zucchini pancakes
Here’s one of my new favorite recipes that replaces my past addiction to potatoe pancakes!
Zucchini Pancakes
Ingredients:
- 3 medium zucchini, grated
- 1/2-1 cup onion, grated, save the juice! (start with 1/2 cup add more to taste)
- 4oz feta or any other cheese of choice (grated or crumbled)
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1 tsp or more to taste paprika
- 1 cup flour ( I use almond meal or whole wheat pastry flour, all purpose flour, etc)
- 3 whole eggs, lightly beaten
- salt and pepper to taste
- oil or non stick spray for frying
- 1-2 limes
Method:
- Grate the zucchini onto a kitchen tea towel and leave to sit about 20 minutes to get rid of excess moisture.
- Crumble the feta into a bowl and add the onion, parsley, mint, and paprika.
- In a separate bowl mix together flour, seasoning, salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the flour mixture to feta cheese/onion, then add the beaten egg and mix.
- Stir in the zucchini. It will be lumpy, just keep stirring until all is combined.
- Heat a few spritzes of non stick spray or a tablespoons of oil on a griddle or in a skillet and using a 1/4 cup measure or a large spoon, drop onto hot surface, using the back of the utensil to flatten into a pancake.
- Cook 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and repeat until all the batter is used.
- Slice the limes and serve on the platter with the fritters for each person to sprinkle as they eat them.
Makes 16-24 fritters, depending on size
