Fry Latkes:
- Heat a generous amount of peanut oil (about 1/2 inch deep) in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully drop spoonfuls of the zucchini-potato mixture into the pan, shaping them into thin silver dollar-size pancakes.
- Fry the latkes until they turn golden brown and develop a crispy exterior, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. π³π₯
-
Serve:
- As you remove the latkes from the pan, place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
- Before serving, sprinkle the latkes with a pinch of salt and the remaining chopped parsley for an extra burst of flavor.
- Enjoy these Zucchini Parmesan Latkes hot and crispy, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce or topping, such as sour cream or applesauce. π½οΈπ
