Fried zucchini patties is one of our favorite dishes here at home. These patties are perfect for lunch or a light dinner. I make mine with my own homegrown zuccini.

Zuccini has a nice and mild flavor and is a great base in many different dishes. I make my zucchini patties with fresh herbs from the kitchen garden. You can use fresh as well as frozen grated zuccini. Just make sure to remove excess water if you decide to use newly thawed zuccini.

Instructions:

Wash and peel the zuccini.
Grate and squeeze out excess water.
Mix the ingredients in a bowl.
Make patties and fry them in a pan with a generous splash of olive oil.

This recipe makes around 20 patties. It's very easy to fry the batter even though the consistency is a bit loose.

Serve with a yogurt sauce and lingonberry jam.
