Ingredients:
- 1 zucchini (grated)
- 1 carrot (grated)
- 1/2 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 eggs
- Garlic cloves or garlic leaves (optional, finely chopped)
- A few green chilies (finely chopped)
- 1 cup flour (whole wheat or all-purpose)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- Salt to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon oil (use a healthy option like olive oil or coconut oil)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Vegetables
- Grate the zucchini and carrot, then place them in a large bowl.
- Finely chop the onion and garlic (if using) and add them to the mixture.
- Add finely chopped green chilies for a spicy kick.
2. Mix the Ingredients
- Crack the eggs into the bowl with the vegetables, mixing them thoroughly.
- Add flour as a binder to hold the mixture together (whole wheat flour adds more fiber).
- Sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, turmeric, and salt to taste.
3. Combine Everything
- Mix until well combined. The mixture should hold its shape when pressed. Adjust the consistency by adding more flour if too wet, or a splash of water or extra egg if too dry.
4. Heat the Oil
- Heat 1 tablespoon of healthy oil (olive or coconut) in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
5. Fry the Patties
- Shape spoonfuls of the mixture into small patties.
- Fry each patty for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
6. Serve
- Serve the patties hot with a side of yogurt or a fresh salad. You can also enjoy them as a snack or a light meal.
