How to Serve Them:

Serve these hot and crispy for the best results, perhaps adding a little ranch dressing or sour cream on top as a garnish. Have them as a snack, side dish or even pair them with bacon and eggs for a special brunch.

Can You Make Them Ahead?

If you want to prepare these ahead, you can, but don’t cook them until you’re ready to serve. That way they’ll be more crispy than reheated ones.

Storage Instructions:

Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Another option is freezing them for an hour on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and then transferring them into a freezer-safe bag or container with parchment paper between each one to stop them sticking together. They’ll be good in the freezer for up to 4 months and you can thaw them overnight before heating them back up.

Variations and Substitutions:

Feel free to add your own touches to these wonderful zucchini patties, or courgette patties as they’re known in some countries. Add Mexican blend cheese, minced jalapenos and cilantro for a south of the border vibe, feta, oregano and minced artichoke hearts for a Greek feel, or some mozzarella and minced sundried tomatoes for a touch of Italy. Or have fun coming up with your own variations!
