1/4 cup prosciutto, diced

1/2 medium onion, diced
1/2 medium bell pepper, diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced cut tomatoes
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
coarse salt, to taste

  • Stir in the garlic and tomato paste, cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, add in the tomato juice from the canned tomatoes and stir mixture scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan.
  • Add the tomatoes, vinegar and red pepper flakes cook until most of the liquid has evaporated add in the fresh basil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm while preparing the zucchini cakes.
  • Using the large side of the box grater, grate the zucchini and onion. Place in the center of a clean kitchen towel, bring up sides and gently squeeze out the moisture.
  • Place in a medium bowl, add the remaining ingredients and combine well with a spatula.
