Zucchini fritters will be a pleasant addition to the summer diet. They are quite light and tasty at the same time. There are many recipes for squash pancakes. Introducing the recipe for pancakes with herbs and cheese.
It is necessary
- - 2 small or 1 large zucchini (zucchini);
- - 1 chicken egg;
- - salt to taste;
- - about 100 grams of wheat flour;
- -100 grams of hard cheese of any kind;
- - seasonings to taste;
- - greens (dill, parsley, cilantro);
- - 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda;
- - 1 onion;
- - 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil for frying.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the zucchini. To do this, they need to be washed, cleaned and dried. If the zucchini is not young, be sure to tediously cut off the thick peel and remove the seeds, grate. Juicy zucchini must be squeezed out so that there is no excess moisture in the dough, otherwise you will have to add more flour.
Step 2
Prepare the rest of the ingredients. Greens must be washed, dried and chopped finely. Grate hard cheese. Peel the onion, wash and cut into spruce cubes.
Step 3
Put the grated zucchini in a deep container. Add chicken egg, herbs, salt, grated cheese, onions and seasonings to taste. Mix everything thoroughly.
Step 4
Add flour and soda slaked with vinegar or boiling water to the mixture. The dough should be thicker in consistency than for pancakes, so that the zucchini pancakes do not spread over the pan, but keep their shape. The final amount of flour will be determined by the juiciness of the courgettes used.
Step 5
Preheat a skillet with vegetable oil (preferably a thick-walled non-stick skillet). Pour the squash mixture with a large spoon or small ladle.
Step 6
Fry the zucchini for 3-5 minutes over medium heat until golden brown. Turn over and fry the same amount on the other side. If the zucchini pancakes are not fried inside, you can put them in the pan again, and hold them over medium heat under the lid for several minutes.
Step 7
Serve hot, as a side dish with meat or fish dishes, or as an independent dish with sour cream. Zucchini pancakes with herbs and cheese are ready.
