ZUCCHINI PANCAKES
INGREDIENTS
2 Eggs, slightly beaten
¼ cup Flour, unsifted
⅛ teaspoon Black Pepper
High-Heat Oil or Butter, for frying
3 Medium Zucchini, shredded
¾ teaspoon Salt
½ cup Onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon Butter
DIRECTIONS
Shred zucchini into a colander and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt, and set aside for 30 min.
Saute onion in hot butter (or oil if you prefer) over med/high heat, until softened and clear.
Squeeze as much liquid as possible from shredded zucchini.
Transfer shredded zucchini and sauteed onions to a large bowl, stir in eggs, flour, remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, and pepper.
Lightly oil a frying pan, or slide some butter around - once pan is hot - add zucchini “batter” to pan, in flat circles about 1/2 inch thick, and 2-3 inches in diameter. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden. Serve hot with apple sauce, sour cream, yogurt, or your dip of choice.
