Potato pancakes are a classic dish of Ukrainian cuisine that always evokes a sea of positive emotions. They are most often made from potatoes, but there is a wonderful opportunity to experiment with ingredients by adding zucchini for lightness and tenderness. Zucchini pancakes will add sophistication to your menu.


Variations

Deruny with courgettes add freshness to this classic dish, making them more diet-friendly and lighter. You can add cheese for an even creamier texture.


Secrets of tenderness and taste

To ensure that zucchini pancakes are tender and do not fall apart, it is best to lightly squeeze the grated zucchini to remove excess moisture before mixing. This will ensure the dish is crispy and light.


Tips on ingredients

Choose young zucchini for less moisture and a more delicate flavour. Grate the potatoes on a fine grater for a better texture combination. These simple tips will help you achieve the perfect result.


Small culinary nuances

Add an egg to bind the mixture together, and spices to taste: salt, pepper and a little nutmeg for aroma.
