Yield: 4 servings.
2½ cups grated zucchini, drained using paper towels
1 large egg, beaten
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
3 green onions, finely chopped
1½ teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup vegetable oil (for frying)
Fresh dill (for garnish)
Tartar sauce (for serving)
In a large bowl, combine zucchini, egg, and 3 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir in breadcrumbs, onions, Old Bay seasoning, and white pepper. Mix well.
Shape mixture into 4 patties. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
Remove patties from refrigerator. Add flour to a plate and dredge patties on both sides.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add vegetable oil and remaining butter. Once hot, fry patties until golden on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes. Place patties on a cooling rack to drain. Serve with dill and your favorite tartar sauce.
