ZUCCHINI AND RICE PATTIES
These are very good and easy to throw together, just make sure the pan is heated quite hot before adding as if it is too cool, it makes it harder to handle them and when it comes to flipping they will tend to want to break up. I served these with a corn relish but feel free to have them on their on. I have included the recipe for the relish if you wish to make it.

Steps:
- Combine rice, zucchini, onion, parsley, egg, panko flakes and corn in a large bowl, stir with a wooden spoon to mix well.
- Shape into patties (I usually get about 14 patties from this.).
- Heat oil in a large frying pan, once quite hot, but not smoking, add patties in batches and cook until browned on both sides and heated through. Drain on absorbent paper. I served mine with a dollop of corn relish and cream. Recipe follows.
- To Serve: Place salad some salad greens on a plate, arrange patties on this and top with relish if desired.
- Corn Relish and Cream.
- I think this relish is quite delicious and goes great with the patties, I can't get corn relish where I am so I make my own. I am not sure how using a jar of store bought will adjust the taste, (as this is what I have listed for the recipe.) but I am sure it will still taste great.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl. That's it easy peasy, This makes about 2 cups.

TOFU ZUCCHINI PATTIES
These tasty Tofu Zucchini Patties have been adapted from a recipe I found in The Australian Women's Weekly's 'The Health Cookbook'. When I've made them for friends, as a casual luncheon dish, they've always been popular - including with those more conservative diners who had never previously eaten tofu! I've suggested serving them specifically with Greek yoghurt - as that's what I generally use - but I've also served them with tzatziki. If you're looking for a recipe for tzatziki, it's hard to beat Ravenseyes' Recipe #306901 or Recipe #157176. BTW, Australian brown onions are what Americans call yellow onions. The original recipe specified "1 cup packaged breadcrumbs" which I've left in the posted recipe but when I've made these I have used processed fresh breadcrumbs. If you find it easier, you can also process the onion and garlic. I've made the herbs optional as you may prefer some other herb combinations, and if you like your food spicier, feel free to modify the recipe so that it best meets your taste preferences.

Steps:
- 1. Spread zucchini. Lay out on paper towels or in a colander (with a bowl under it), sprinkle zucchini with salt and let rest for at least 30 minutes (I get best results when I let it sit for several hours). This step pulls out excess moisture from the zucchini/squash.
- 2. In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, eggs, onion, flour, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese (add seasoning at this time as well if you desire).
- 3. Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drop zucchini mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls, and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden.
Tips:
- Choose small to medium-sized zucchinis for the best texture and flavor.
- Shred the zucchini using a box grater or food processor fitted with the shredding blade.
- Squeeze out as much excess moisture from the shredded zucchini as possible using paper towels or a cheesecloth.
- Use a combination of bread crumbs and flour as the binder for the patties to ensure they hold together well.
- Season the patties generously with herbs and spices such as garlic, onion, parsley, thyme, and salt and pepper.
- Form the patties into small, flat rounds and pan-fry them in hot oil until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
- Serve the zucchini patties hot with your favorite dipping sauce such as ranch dressing, sour cream, or tzatziki.
Conclusion:
