Zucchini hash browns with garlic and onion

Zucchini hash browns are a delightful twist on the traditional potato version. They are light, nutritious, and packed with flavors from garlic and onion. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or a versatile side dish, these hash browns are easy to whip up in no time.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Zucchini:
- Wash the zucchini thoroughly.
- Grate the zucchini using a box grater or a food processor.
- Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth, and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure your hash browns are crispy and not soggy.
2. Mix Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, beat the two eggs.
- Add the grated zucchini to the eggs.
- Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
- Mix well until all ingredients are combined evenly.
3. Heat the Oil:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the zucchini mixture to achieve a crispy texture.
4. Cook the Hash Browns:
- Spoon the zucchini mixture into the hot skillet, pressing down lightly with a spatula to flatten into patties.
- Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; you may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your pan.

5. Serve:
- Once cooked, transfer the hash browns to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious zucchini hash browns!

Tips:

- Make sure to drain the zucchini well after grating to remove excess moisture, which will help the hash browns crisp up better.

- You can add finely chopped fresh herbs like parsley or dill for an added burst of flavor.

- For extra crispiness, cook the hash browns on medium-high heat and avoid overcrowding the pan.

- If you prefer, you can substitute fresh garlic and onion for the powders for a more intense flavor.

- Serve with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt on top for a creamy contrast.

These delicious zucchini hash browns with garlic and onion are sure to become a favorite. Not only are they easy to make, but they are also packed with nutrients and flavor. Enjoy them as a standalone dish or as a complement to your favorite meals.
