Suggested Recipes
-
4 cups (1 L) coarsely grated zucchini (6, or 1 lb/500 g total)
1 tsp (5 mL) salt
2 green onions, minced
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup (250 mL) buttermilk
2 tbsp (25 mL) vegetable oil
2/3 cup (150 mL) cornmeal
1/2 cup (125 mL) all-purpose flour
1 tsp (5 mL) granulated sugar
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each baking soda and pepper
2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
Preparation:
In colander, toss zucchini with salt ; let stand for 20 minutes. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible; transfer zucchini to bowl. Stir in green onions, eggs, buttermilk and oil; set aside.
In large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda and pepper. Pour zucchini mixture over top; stir just until blended.
In large nonstick skillet, heat half of the butter over medium heat. Using heaping 2 tbsp (25 mL) batter for each and remaining butter as necessary, fry pancakes, flattening slightly with back of spoon, until bottoms are golden, about 2 minutes.
Turn and fry until edges are golden, about 2 minutes. Place on paper towel?lined baking sheet or plate. (Make-ahead: Let cool and stack between waxed paper; refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat on baking sheet in 325°F/160°C oven, about 8 minutes.)
