INGREDIENTS

2 small zucchinis
2 eggs
120 g of flour
1 onion
100 g of grated parmesan cheese
35 g of fresh dill
2 garlic cloves
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying

METHOD

1. Grate the zucchinis, and then squeeze out some of the excess juice. You don’t need them bone-dry, but removing excess moisture is crucial. Place them in a mixing bowl.
2. Finely chop the onion, fresh dill, and mince the garlic, adding them to the bowl with the grated zucchini.
3. Add the flour, grated parmesan cheese, and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Crack the eggs into the mixture.
4. Gently but thoroughly combine all the ingredients until a cohesive batter forms.
5. Preheat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
6. Using a spoon, carefully scoop the zucchini batter into the pan and shape it into pancakes. Flatten them slightly to ensure even cooking.
7. Fry the pancakes on both sides until they turn golden brown and crispy. This typically takes about 2-3 minutes per side.
8. Once the pancakes are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
9. Now, for the pièce de résistance, serve your scrumptious Zucchini Pancakes with a dollop of sour cream or, for a delightful twist, pair them with the Creamy Garlic Soya Sauce Dip from my blog.
