Of course, you can use more or less. But it is important to keep the proportions. The volumes of other ingredients presented below should be exactly for 500 grams of the zucchini component.

The zucchini should be grated using a grater. The resulting liquid should be poured out.

The resulting mass should be squeezed out. There will be some more water, which will have to be drained.

To the prepared base you need to add one finely chopped onion, one raw egg, three tablespoons of flour and the same amount of vegetable oil.

The resulting mixture needs to be salted and peppered.

As a result, a mass will appear from which you need to form several potato pancakes and fry them in a frying pan.

The finished dish will be delicious and tender. In terms of taste, zucchini pancakes are in no way inferior to potato pancakes.
