Ingredients:
• 2 cups (340 g) – zucchini, grated
• 1/4 cup – carrot, grated
• 1/2 cup – boiled and mashed Potato
• 1/4 cup – whole Wheat pastry flour
• 1/4 tsp – baking powder
• 1/4 tsp – dried Thyme (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
- Grate the zucchini and place it in a colander. Add 1 tsp salt to it.
- Toss to combine and set aside for at least 30 minutes.
- Squeeze the water out of the zucchini. You can use your hands or a cheesecloth.
- Add them along with thyme, potatoes and carrots in a bowl.
- You can at this point do a taste test to see if you want more salt. Season accordingly.
- In another bowl, mix the flour and baking powder until combined.
- Add it to the vegetable mixture. Mix until well combined.
- Make small (lime sized) balls.
- Form into patties. Repeat for rest of them.
- At this point you can also refrigerate these in the fridge (for about 20-30 minutes) which will help to hold them up well while frying. It also helps to avoid oil retention.
- Add 1-2 tbsp of oil to your cast iron pan (or as desired to coat the bottom of a non-stick skillet).
- When hot, add the patties.
- Cook them until golden-reddish brown on both the sides. It takes around 5-6 minutes for each side.
- Serve hot with ketchup, chilli sauce, yogurt or sour cream.
