Yield Makes about 36 latkes

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pounds zucchini
1 1/3 cups plain fine dry bread crumbs
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
About 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
Accompaniment: sour cream
Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer

Steps:

  • Grate zucchini using medium shredding disk of a food processor. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 2 teaspoons salt. Let stand 30 minutes.
  • Squeeze zucchini in batches in a kitchen towel to remove as much liquid as possible. Transfer zucchini to a large bowl and stir in bread crumbs, eggs, marjoram, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Preheat oven to 200°F.
  • Heat 1/3 cup oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Scoop 2 tablespoon mixture per latke into skillet (6 to 8 per batch). Flatten with a fork to form 2 1/2-to 3-inch pancakes. Fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side (adding more oil as necessary). Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in oven.

These latkes are a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my latkes turned out soggy. Maybe I didn't cook them long enough?

These latkes are a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some herbs or spices next time.

These zucchini latkes were a hit at my last dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a delicious savory flavor. My guests raved about them and asked for the recipe.
