Potato Cakes with Zucchini and Onion

Combine 3 cups grated zucchini & 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt in a colander. Let drain for 5 minutes, then wring dry in a kitchen towel.

Stir together:

• 3 cups Russet potatoes (grated)
• 1/2 cup onion (grated)
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 egg
• 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a nonstick skillet over med-low heat. Drop potato mixture in oil (1/4 cup at a time). Flatten to 1 inch thick. Saute cakes until potatoes are cooked (about 5 minutes per side). Fry in batches, using additional oil as needed.

Makes 12 cakes.
