Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Zucchini
- 1 medium-sized Russet potato
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Grate the zucchini and potato using the large holes of a box grater.
Transfer the grated zucchini and potato to a clean dish towel or cheesecloth, gather it into a bundle, and squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the vegetables.
Place the squeezed zucchini and potato into a large bowl.
In the same bowl, add the egg, all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well until fully combined.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and form it into a small, flat patty. Place it carefully into the hot skillet.
Repeat this process until the skillet is filled, but make sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each patty for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes.
Transfer the cooked hash browns to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet as needed and repeat with the remaining mixture.
Serve the zucchini hash browns warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish.
