Equipment
- KitchenAid Stand Mixer
- KitchenAid Food Processor Attachment
- Digital scale
- Non-stick frying pan
- Chef’s knife
Ingredients
- 1 small brown onion
- 450g (about 3 large) zucchini, trimmed, cut in half lengthways
- 240g (about 2 small) yellow potatoes, such as yukon gold or Bintje potatoes
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 2 tsp olive oil, plus extra for frying
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 75g (½ cup) plain flour
- 25g (¼ cup) good quality fresh Parmesan, grated
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Lemon wedges, optional
Instructions
- Attach the Food Processor Attachment to your KitchenAid Stand Mixer and insert the dicing kit as directed.
- Position a large bowl under the food attachment to catch the diced onions. Turn on the stand mixer to speed 4 and process.
- Set onions aside and replace the dicing kit with the large grating disc and place a second bowl in position. Grate the zucchini, one at a time, into the feed tube on speed 4. Set aside. Place another bowl in position and repeat the same process with the potatoes.
- Transfer the zucchini to a colander and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of sea salt. Toss to combine and let it drain for 10 minutes. Wring moisture from zucchini by pressing against sides of the colander or wrapping it a clean dishcloth and squeezing excess water out. Place the shredded zucchini in a large mixing bowl and toss with a fork to loosen the shreds.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the onions, stirring occasionally until softened. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Add the onions to the zucchini with the potatoes, egg, flour and parmesan cheese. Season with sea salt and fresh black pepper.
- In a non-stick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Drop large spoonfuls of zucchini mixture into the oil and flatten slightly. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove from the heat and repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Serve with lemon wedges if desired.
