Best 6 Zucchini Pancakes With Smoked Trout Dilled Yogurt Recipes

ZUCCHINI PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Grate the zucchini into a bowl using the large grating side of a box grater. Immediately stir in the onion and eggs. Stir in 6 tablespoons of the flour, the baking powder, salt, and pepper. (If the batter gets too thin from the liquid in the zucchini, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour.)
• Heat a large (10 to 12-inch) saute pan over medium heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and 1/2 tablespoon oil together in the pan. When the butter is hot but not smoking, lower the heat to medium-low and drop heaping soup spoons of batter into the pan. Cook the pancakes about 2 minutes on each side, until browned. Place the pancakes on a sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the pan with a dry paper towel, add more butter and oil to the pan, and continue to fry the pancakes until all the batter is used. The pancakes can stay warm in the oven for up to 30 minutes. Serve hot.

ZUCCHINI CAKES WITH SMOKED TROUT

Steps:

• Place zucchini in colander set over bowl; sprinkle with salt and toss to coat. Place small plate atop zucchini to weigh down. Let stand 30 minutes to drain.
• Squeeze zucchini as dry as possible in kitchen towel. Transfer zucchini to medium bowl. Stir in flour, Parmesan, and shallot, then stir in beaten egg mixture and pepper.
• Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Brush large nonstick skillet with enough oil to coat; heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches, drop zucchini mixture into skillet by scant 1 tablespoonfuls, spacing apart. Using spatula, flatten cakes to 2-inch rounds. Cook until golden on bottom, brushing skillet with more oil as needed between batches, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer cakes to prepared baking sheet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool completely, then cover and chill. Rewarm uncovered in 325°F oven until heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Place warm zucchini cakes on platter. Top each with small dollop of sour cream and piece of smoked trout. Sprinkle with chopped dill and serve.

POTATO ZUCCHINI PANCAKES WITH YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Set up your grill for even medium-high heat by building coals evenly on the bottom of the grill.
• Place the shredded zucchinis and potatoes into a tea towel and wring as much moisture out as you can. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, flour, scallions, dill and lemon zest and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the zucchinis and potatoes and mix to combine. Using a 1/3 cup measure, scoop the mixture into balls on a cookie tray.
• Place a large cast-iron pan on the grill and add a good splash of oil (it should be 1- to 1 1/2-inches deep in the pan). Set a cooling rack in a sheet tray and set aside.
• Bring the oil to 350 degrees F, then add 3 balls to the pan and flatten into pancakes. Brown and crisp on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and brown and crisp on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to the cooling rack set and season with salt. Repeat with the remaining potato pancakes, adding more olive oil to the pan as needed.
• For the yogurt sauce: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, chives, olive oil, lemon zest and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the potato zucchini pancakes with a dollop of yogurt sauce.

ZUCCHINI PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place zucchini in a colander over a bowl, and mix with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Allow to drain for five minutes. Transfer to a cloth kitchen towel, and squeeze hard to extract as much moisture as possible. Squeeze a second time; volume will shrink to about half the original.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine zucchini and eggs. Using a fork, mix well. Add flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, olive oil, feta, scallions, dill and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well, add baking powder, and mix again.
• Place a cast iron skillet or other heavy skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. Place heaping tablespoons of zucchini batter in pan several inches apart, allowing room to spread. Flatten them with a spatula if necessary; pancakes should be about 3/8 inch thick and about 3 inches in diameter. Fry until golden on one side, then turn and fry again until golden on other side. Repeat once or twice, frying about 5 to 6 minutes total, so pancakes get quite crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels, and keep warm in oven. Continue frying remaining batter, adding more oil to pan as needed. Serve hot.
• For yogurt sauce: In a small bowl, combine yogurt, garlic and salt. Mix well, and serve on the side or on pancakes.

ZUCCHINI PANCAKES WITH YOGURT DILL SAUCE

Steps:

• To make sauce: In a ceramic or plastic bowl, combine all ingredients, cover, and chill.
• (If you are making sauce in advance, add lemon juice just before serving, or yogurt will separate).
• To make the pancakes: Grate zucchini and potatoes on the large hole side of a hand held box grater or in a food processor fitted with shredding disk.
• Put the grated vegs in a bowl and add onion, olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 300*.
• In a 7 1/2" nonstick omelet pan, heat 1 teaspoons of the veg. oil together with 1/4 teaspoons of melted butter over med. high heat until hot.
• Pour 3/4 cup of the grated vegs. and spread mixture to the edges of pan, pressing down firmly with a rubber spatula to form a pancake about 1/4" thick.
• Cook about 3 mins., until edges begin to brown.
• Gently lift pancake with the spatula to check underside. If deep golden brown in color turn or flip the pancake and cook 3 to 4 minutes more, until golden.
• Remove pancake to paper towel to drain, then transfer to a baking sheet.
• Place in oven to keep warm.
• Make more pancakes in same manner (add 1 teaspoons of oil and a bit of butter for each one).
• To serve, put a generous 1/4 cup of greens on 6 salad plates.
• Spread each pancake with 2 tbls. yogurt dill sauce, then put pancake on greens.
• Arrange 2 slices of salmon on top.
• Garnish with chives, lemon slices, pepper.
• Serve remaining sauce on the side.

ZUCCHINI PANCAKES WITH SMOKED TROUT & DILLED YOGURT

Steps:

• 1 - Shred the zucchini using a box grater or food processor or use a mandoline to cut into thin matchsticks. Toss with ¾ tsp. salt in a colander set over a large bowl. Allow to sit for 5 minutes until liquid begins to collect in the bottom of the bowl. Transfer the zucchini to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as you can (I measured the liquid I removed--about ¾ c., if you were curious). 2 - Beat the eggs with ¼ tsp. salt and ½ tsp. black pepper. Add the zucchini, sliced onion, and 1 Tbsp. each dill and chives. Toss with the flour and baking powder and stir until incorporated. 3 - Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and coat well with oil. Drop ¼ c. mounds of the zucchini pancake batter on the griddle and flatten slightly to make 3 in. circles. Cook 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. 4 - Meanwhile, stir together the yogurt, lemon zest and juice, remaining herbs, a pinch of salt, and a few twists of pepper in a small bowl. 5 - Divide pancakes between plates, top with the flaked trout and a spoonful of yogurt sauce.
