Instructions

Step 1

Place the grated zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes to draw out the moisture. Squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, chopped onion, beaten egg, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, baking powder, and black pepper. Mix well until all are thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the zucchini mixture and form it into a patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 5

Fry the patties in batches in the hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
