List of Ingredients
1 pound zucchini -- grated
1 teaspoon kosher salt -- or 3/4 teaspoon table salt
3/4 cup feta cheese -- crumbled
1 large egg -- lightly beaten
3 green onions -- thinly sliced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup pine nut -- chopped
1 tablespoon fresh dill -- chopped or 1 teaspoon dried
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano -- chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried
1 garlic clove -- finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon black pepper -- freshly milled
Olive oil Recipe
Combine the grated zucchini and kosher salt. Set aside for 5 minutes (no more,
or it will be mush). Rinse in cold water and squeeze dry in a kitchen
towel or press in a strainer or colander until dry. Combine the cheese,
egg, green onions, flour, pine nuts, dill, oregano, garlic, and pepper in a
large bowl; fold in the zucchini. Form into 24 small cakes (about 2
tablespoons of mixture for each) and saute in olive oil, turning once, until
browned, about 3 minutes on each side. Serve mmediately.
