Ingredients




1 1/4 cups shredded carrots
1 medium zucchini
3 scallions, sliced
2 eggs, whisked
1/2 cup organic corn meal
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp tumeric
2 TBS olive oil

Preparation

1 Grate the zucchini coarsely and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes so that it releases some of its water content. Give the grated zucchini an extra squeeze and drain out all the excess water. 2 Coarsely chop the shredded carrots into smaller pieces. 3 Mix the zucchini, carrots, scallions, cornmeal, salt, tumeric, and eggs in a large bowl until well incorporated. 4 Heat a sauté pan with olive oil over medium-high heat. 5 Once the pan is heated, scoop out 1/4 cup of the mixture. Place it in the pan, and flatten the mixture so that it looks like a small patty. Repeat for the rest of the mixture. 6 Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes. 7 Enjoy!
