Ingredients
Grated Zucchini
400 grams
Egg
1 Large
Freshly grated Parmesan
100 grams
Thinly sliced green onions
2
Xanthine Gum
50 grams
Kosher Salt
As per your taste
Freshly grounded black pepper
1/8 tbsp
Olive oil
4 tbsp
Shredded Cheddar
400 grams
Procedure
Gently squeeze excess moisture from the zucchini using a clean kitchen towel.
Next, in a medium bowl, mix the zucchini with an egg, Parmesan, green onions, and cornstarch. Then season the mixture with some salt and pepper according to your taste.
Now take a large frying-pan and pour enough vegetable oil to layer the bottom of the pan. Scoop about 1/4 of the zucchini mixture onto one side of the pan and shape into a small square.
You can place two zucchini patties of the same size in the same frying-pan and cook them over medium heat and cook them together.
Cook until the patties are lightly golden on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Remove the patties from the heat to drain on paper towels, and repeat with the remaining zucchini mixture. Wipe the frying-pan clean before shallow frying the next batch of patties.
Preparing the second batch, top both the patties with shredded cheese, then place the previously cooked patties on top to form two sandwiches. Cook until the cheese has melted, about 2 minutes per side.
Cut in half and serve immediately.
