The mixture is then fried in a skillet to create golden, savoury patties. They are perfect as a side dish or a light meal. The recipe makes 2-4 servings and takes about 50 minutes to prepare and cook.
Ingredients
- 3 cups grated zucchini
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup Bisquick (more or less)
- 1/3 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/2-1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper
- butter or cooking spray, for frying
Method
- Grate the zucchini, leaving the skin and seeds unless they are very large. Sprinkle the grated zucchini with 1 teaspoon of salt and leave it to stand for 15 to 20 minutes. Afterwards, drain the zucchini thoroughly.
- Combine the well-drained zucchini with the beaten egg, 1/4 cup of Bisquick, 1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese, 1/2-1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and additional salt and pepper. Mix everything together until fully incorporated. the batter will be loose and not very thick.
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a large skillet. Drop tablespoonfuls of the batter to form patties roughly 2 to 3 inches wide. Fry them until they are browned on each side, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Transfer the cooked patties onto paper towels to absorb any excess oil. You can keep them warm in an oven until you are ready to serve them.
