Courgette (Zucchini) Patties Time: 25 minutes
1 medium zucchini - about 2 cups, shredded
1 shallot
1 egg, beaten
2 tbs bread crumbs
2 tbs Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper
to taste
1 tbs olive oil
Shred zucchini using large holes on box shredder - or however you want to do it. Finely chop shallot. In medium bowl lightly beat egg, add bread crumbs, Parmesan, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add zucchini and shallot and mix well. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat with 1 tbs oil. Divide mixture into 4ths and spoon each 4th into pan, shaping into patty and patting down lightly. Sauté 5 - 10 minutes, or until brown, then flip and fry other side the same. When brown, remove and serve. A little freshly ground pepper and sea salt on top is a nice touch.
