Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups (packed) zucchini, grated
2 cups (packed) carrots, peeled and grated
½ cup green onions, sliced
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
Olive oil for frying
Sour cream or plain Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • Using a food processor with a grater (shredder) attachment (or a box grater), shred the zucchini and place it in a fine mesh strainer (with a bowl below). Sprinkle salt over the zucchini and give it a gentle toss. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, prepare and measure the other ingredients (except the olive oil, salt and optional toppings *(see first note) and place them in a large bowl.Then, using your hands, squeeze the grated zucchini to drain excess liquid (it's okay if it is not completely dry) before adding it with the other ingredients.
  • Combine the ingredients until well incorporated.
  • Heat a large skillet on medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil, swirling the skillet to cover the surface. Scoop ⅓ cup of the mixture in the pan and gently press down with a spatula to form a pancake **(see second note). Repeat the process until the pan is filled with pancakes, but the pancakes are not touching.
  • Pan-fry until golden-brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel. Add another tablespoon of the olive oil to the skillet and repeat the frying process until the mixture runs out.
  • Garnish with additional fresh parsley and serve with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt if you like. Best enjoyed immediately.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium organic carrots, grated
1 medium organic zucchini, about 8 inches long, grated
1/2 c yellow onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, diced
1 large handful of fresh basil leaves sliced into thin ribbons
1 Tbsp coconut oil, or olive oil (for the pan)
1/3 c unbleached white flour (or your flour of choice) + more for dredging
1 Tbsp dried dill
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Grate carrot and zucchini in a large bowl. Take a clean towel and place mixture on the towel and wring extra moisture out. Place back in the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients, MINUS the coconut oil, and only 1/3 cup flour. Mix with your hands until you can make a ball and it will not fall apart. You may have to add more flour to achieve the desired consistency. On a separate plate, sprinkle some flour with some salt and pepper - this is for dredging the mixture.
  • 2. In a large skillet, add coconut oil and heat on medium heat. Let warm up for a minute. Take the mixture and divide it into fourths. Take one serving of the mixture, roll it into a ball and roll into the flour mixture on the plate. Carefully place into the skillet, flattening until your desired size and thickness. Do this for all 4 servings. Let cook for 8-10 minutes on each side. You may have to add more oil when you flip. Make sure they do not burn. Simple and delicious!
