Instructions
- Gently squeeze the grated zucchinis to remove a little of the water. Put into a bowl and add the parmesan cheese, green onions, oregano and chopped ham.
- Put the ricotta into another bowl big enough to hold the entire mixture and break it up with a fork. Add the pepper and a sprinkling of salt, dijon then mix in the eggs till combined. Add one cup of flour and stir well . Add the zucchini mixture and the next cup of flour and fold the entire mixture together. Stand for 5 minutes while you prepare the pans
- Heat a large frypan on high and add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Add the mixture in big spoonfuls flattening into patties about the size of a hamburger patty. The mixture will make 12.
- Don't turn the patty till it is golden brown. Check this by lifting a corner of a patty to check on the colour. Once you turn it over lower the heat a little so that it cooks through properly and repeat. I use two frypans to keep one on high one on low and move the patties between. Drain each on kitchen paper as you take them out of the pan.
- Serve the patties with Chutney or with crushed avocado and roast tomatoes.
Notes
- These patties taste great at room temperature
- If you don't have gluten free flour add 1 cup of plain (normal) flour or 1 1- 1/2 cups of panko crumbs. Just enough so you can form a wet patty
- if you don't have 200 gm leftover ham you can use a bit less. The recipe will work well with smaller amounts
- You could also substitute smoked flaked cooked salmon or chicken. you could also add feat in place of the parmesan.
