- 2 large zucchini, grated
- 12 cup red onion, diced
- 14 cup green bell pepper, diced
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temp.)
- 2 -3 tablespoons butter
- 23-1 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1 -1 12 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 1 egg
- oil (for frying)
- breadcrumbs or flour (for dredging)
Method
- Grate zucchini and squeeze dry.
- Melt butter over medium heat and add onion and bell pepper.
- Cook for 5 - 10 minutes.
- Remove onion and bell pepper from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl combine zucchini, cream cheese, Old bay seasoning, egg and bread crumbs.
- Mix in the onions and bell pepper including any butter from the pan.
- At this point if you feel your mix is too wet you can add a little more bread crumbs, do not add too much because it will reflect in the flavor of the cakes.
- Place the entire mixture in the refrigerator for a couple of hours if you have the time.
- This allows the mixture to bind and it makes it easier to handle the patties.
- If you do not have the time, do not worry, just coat your hands in flour when making the patties.
- Once you are ready to make the patties just grab a glob (1/3 C) shape into a ball, dredge in flour or bread crumbs (that is entirely up to you) and then fry in about an inch of oil, flattening them with your spatula, until golden brown.
