INGREDIENTS
- 1 Large Zucchini ; shredded
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup red onion ; chopped
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese ; shredded
- 1/2 cup All purpose flour
- 2 Eggs ; or 1/2 cup refrigerated egg product
- 1 TBL Canola Oil
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 TBL Canola Oil ; for sauteing
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the Zucchini and the salt in a large bowl and let stand for 30 minutes.
Then place Zucchini in a colander and with a spatula or your hand, push the zucchini up against the colander to remove as much water as possible. Or you could put in a clean hand towel and squeeze it out.
Combine the drained zucchini, red onion, parmesan cheese, flour, egg (or egg product), 1 TBL canola oil, garlic powder, and pepper in large bowl. If batter is not thick enough to just hold together, then sprinkle a little bit more flour (1 TBL at a time).
Heat on medium the 2 TBL of canola oil. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, spoon the batter into hot pan and press down slightly so that the the cake is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cook pancakes on each side for about 4 minutes. You can tell it needs to be flipped when it will move around pan on it's own and the edges are a little brown. Cook on the other side until brown as well.
Drain on a plate lined with paper towel. Garnish with sliced Green Onions and serve with Sour Cream for dipping if you like.

The first four cakes. Used spoon to scoop into cast iron pot. Substituted olive oil for canola. Amazing taste! Received a lot of compliments!
