How To Make Zucchini Hash Browns
To make our zucchini hash browns start by coarsely shredding around 4 cups of zucchini into a medium bowl. Add salt and let it sit for 15 minutes, then squeeze out the excess water with your hands. Add the eggs, parmesan cheese and minced garlic and thoroughly combine.
Next, in a large skillet over medium-high heat add 2 tablespoons of butter. Take 2 tablespoons of the mixture and flatten them into the skillet to form a patty. Fill the skillet with patties being careful not to overcrowd them.
Cook the hash browns until they’re golden on both sides turning once. This should take around 6-8 minutes depending on your skillet. Repeat until you’ve used all the mixture, you might need to add some more butter to the skillet.
