Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional for extra flavor)
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs or panko
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (like parsley or dill)
- Olive oil or vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- Grate the zucchinis and place them in a colander. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.
- After 10 minutes, squeeze out as much liquid as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, chopped onion, Parmesan, bread crumbs, flour, beaten egg, garlic powder, pepper, and herbs. Mix until well combined.
- Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape into small patties.
- Place the patties in the hot skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove and drain on a paper towel. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad!
