For example, in this recipe, zucchini makes an excellent company with cilantro, pine nuts and garlic. The result is a truly wonderful dish that is definitely worth a try.

How to cook Zucchini pancakes with garlic

Step 1

Prepare zucchini for garlic pancakes. Wash them first and pat dry with paper towels. If the zucchini is young and their skin is tender, do not peel the fruit.

Wash the cilantro for pancakes with garlic, dry well, spread on a paper towel, and then finely chop. Peel the garlic, crush the cloves and finely chop.

Step 4

Lightly brown the pine nuts in a dry frying pan and let cool. Add the eggs, two-thirds of the cilantro, garlic, and pine nuts to the bowl of zucchini. Stir.

Step 5

Add flour, add olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Knead the zucchini mass and let rest for 5 minutes at room temperature.

Step 6

Heat up the pan. Pour in a small amount of oil. Spread the resulting zucchini mixture with garlic in small portions into the pan. Roast until browned.

Step 7

Flip over and fry on the other side. Also prepare pancakes from the whole dough. If necessary, they can be brought to readiness in the oven or in a frying pan under a lid over low heat.
