Crispy, cheesy zucchini patties ready in 25 minutes using summer squash and pantry staples.

# Ingredients:

For the patties

01 - 2 cups (about 250 g) grated zucchini
02 - 2 large eggs, beaten
03 - 1/2 cup (60 g) all-purpose flour
04 - 1/2 cup (50 g) grated Parmesan cheese

06 - 1/4 cup (40 g) finely chopped onion
07 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
08 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
09 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying

# Instructions:

01 - Grate the zucchini and squeeze firmly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine the drained zucchini, eggs, flour, Parmesan, mozzarella, onion, salt, and pepper. Stir until well blended.
03 - Warm the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
04 - Working in batches, drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the mixture into the skillet and flatten slightly. Fry until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes per side.
05 - Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate briefly, then serve warm.

# Good to know:

01 - Serve immediately for the crispiest texture.
