Zucchini Potato Pancakes
This recipe was posted in our local newspaper, and my husband and i thought it sounded good. the recipe is very user friendly with the most work being the shredding of the zucchini and the potato. the work is well worth it though--trust me!!
Steps
Shred the zucchini into a bowl using the large holes of a box grater.
Place the grated zucchini in a medium bowl and sprinkle with 1 / 2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt.
Transfer zucchini to a colander in a bowl and let zucchini drain at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
Using your hands or a towel , squeeze out the excess liquid.
Shred the potato into a bowl using the large holes of a box grater.
In a bowl , mix together the onion , egg , and flour , and pepper to taste.
Add zucchini and potatoes.
Mix well.
Work quickly because the zucchini-potato mixture oxidizes and discolors once hit by the fresh air.
Heat 2 to 4 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
When the pan is hot enough to create a small sizzle , ladle the mixture into the pan to form six 4-inch cakes.
Fry until golden on the bottom , 7 to 10 minutes.
Using a spatula , turn the pancakes over until browned on the second side , about 6 minutes longer.
Serve at once with a dollop of sour .
