Steps:
- Bring the potatoes with enough cold water to cover to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook, over medium-high heat, until the potatoes are tender, 6 to 8 minutes; drain and pat dry.
- Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, cilantro, salt, and hot sauce in a large bowl.
- Preheat the oven broiler to medium-high.
- Heat the oil in a medium (10-inch) ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 2 minutes. Add zucchini and cook until tender, about 6 minutes more. Add the cooked potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes begin to brown slightly, about 4 minutes more.
- Evenly pour the egg mixture over the vegetable mixture. Cook, over medium heat, tilting the pan and lifting the edges with a rubber spatula to let the uncooked egg flow underneath. Sprinkle with the cheese and the bacon, if using. Broil, 5 to 7 inches from the heat, until the eggs puff and are just set and the cheese is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove carefully to a plate, or serve in wedges directly from the skillet.

ZUCCHINI BACON & POTATO PANCAKES
Growing up as part of a German family in southeastern Wisconsin, potato pancakes were a staple on our dinner table, especially during a Friday night fish fry. I've adapted my mom's recipe to include fresh from the garden zucchini and my favorite add-in, bacon! These are the perfect side with fish, some farm fresh eggs, or even...

Steps:
- 1. Place zucchini and potato into a colander over a medium-sized bowl. Sprinkle with salt and toss to coat. Let the mixture sit in the colander for about 10 minutes, then press down with a clean towel to squeeze out the excess water.
- 2. While you're waiting for the mixture to drain, place a medium-sized sauté or fry pan over medium heat. Place diced bacon into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, until some of the bacon has rendered and there are approximately 1-2 Tablespoons of grease in the pan. Add onion and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and the bacon is almost crispy. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Remove bacon, onion, and garlic from the pan with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain. Remove the pan from the heat, but do not remove grease from the pan.
- 3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg, flour, baking powder, pepper, and paprika. Add the bread crumbs, cooked bacon mixture, and the zucchini and potato mixture and stir to combine. Fold in the Parmesan cheese until everything is well combined.
- 4. Place the sauté pan you used to cook the bacon back over medium heat. If the pan seems dry, add 1 Tablespoon of butter. Once the pan has reheated, drop in the batter 1/8 cup (2 Tablespoons) at a time. Flatten each pancake gently with a fork. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Flip the pancakes over and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Place on an oven-safe plate and keep the cooked pancakes warm at 200 degrees until you're ready to serve them. If desired, top with sour cream or crème fraiche before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, it's best to use small, firm potatoes that can hold their shape when cooked. A variety like Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes works well.
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly: This step helps to remove any dirt or pesticides from the potato skin.
- Cut the zucchini into thin, even slices: This will help them cook evenly and add a nice texture to the dish.
- Use thick-cut bacon: Thick-cut bacon adds a more substantial and flavorful texture to the dish.
- Cook the bacon until crispy: This will give it a nice, smoky flavor that pairs well with the potatoes and zucchini.
- Add the potatoes and zucchini to the pan with the bacon: Make sure to stir them frequently so that they cook evenly.
- Season the dish with salt, pepper, and garlic powder: You can adjust the amount of seasoning to your taste.
- Cover the pan and cook the potatoes and zucchini until they are tender: This will usually take about 15-20 minutes.
- Sprinkle the dish with chopped fresh parsley: This adds a fresh, herbal flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Potatoes with Bacon and Zucchini is an easy and delicious side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses.
