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.

I'm not sure why, but my latkes kept falling apart. I think I might have grated the potatoes too finely.

These latkes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

These latkes were a little too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my latkes turned out mushy. I think I might have grated the zucchini too finely.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

These latkes were easy to make and turned out great! I used a mixture of zucchini and yellow squash, and they were both delicious.
