Ingredients
- 1 medium zucchini (12 ounce)
- ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1 egg
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or chedddar cheese)
- ¼ cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 g reen onion ( thinly sliced)
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying)
Steps
-
Start by grating your zucchini using the larger holes on a box grater. If you have a bigger zucchini, make sure to remove any large seeds with a spoon.
-
Sprinkle the shredded zucchini with salt and let it rest in a colander for about 5-10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
-
Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the zucchini using a cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel.
-
In a bowl, mix the zucchini with the egg, cheese, breadcrumbs, green onion, flour, and baking powder until well combined.
-
Shape the mixture into four patties, each about 3-inches across.
-
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the zucchini patties.
-
Cook each patty for 3 to 5 minutes per side until they're a deep, golden brown.
