Preparation Time:

• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 10 minutes
• Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 potatoes
• 1 carrot
• 1 zucchini
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 2 tablespoons of flour
• 1 teaspoon of salt

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Start by preparing the vegetables, which will serve as the base for your pancakes. Grate the potatoes, carrot, and zucchini into fine shreds using a grater. The key to achieving the right texture for your pancakes is ensuring the vegetables are evenly grated, which will help them cook uniformly and blend seamlessly into the batter.
Step 2: Mix the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potato, carrot, and zucchini. Crack the eggs into the mixture, then add the salt and flour. Stir the ingredients together until they are well combined. The batter should have a slightly thick consistency, holding the shredded vegetables together without being too runny.

Step 3: Fry the Pancakes
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, spoon small portions of the vegetable batter into the pan, forming round pancakes. Use the back of the spoon to gently flatten each pancake to ensure even cooking. Fry the pancakes for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Once the pancakes are cooked, remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil. Serve the pancakes hot, garnished with your favorite toppings.
