Zucchini Patties

Ingredients:

  • 2 large zucchinis (about 300 g)
  • 1 onion or shallot
  • 1 clove of garlic (optional)
  • Fresh herbs: flat-leaf parsley, mint, basil, or coriander
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp flour
  • 2 tablespoons of cream (regular or vegetable-based)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Paprika, curry, Espelette pepper, etc.
  • Butter or oil for frying

Preparation:

  1. Wash, dry, and grate the zucchinis. Place them in a clean tea towel and squeeze tightly to remove excess juice.
  2. Finely chop the onion or shallot, as well as the fresh herbs.
  3. Mix the grated zucchinis with the chopped onion/shallot and herbs. Add the cream and the whole egg, and mix well.
  4. Gradually incorporate the flour, salt, pepper, and desired spices into the mixture, ensuring even distribution.
  5. Heat 20 g of butter and a small amount of sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  6. Spoon small portions of the zucchini mixture into the pan, flattening them to form pancakes. Cook for approximately 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  7. Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with absorbent paper to drain any excess oil.
  8. Serve the zucchini patties hot and enjoy!

Bon appétit!
