These zucchini hash browns are a tasty way to sneak some green veggies into breakfast. The zucchini is just the right texture and you might even prefer these browns to the classic potato variety.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  30-60 minutes

ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 cup chopped red onion
1 teaspoon thyme
1 tablespoon basil
4 medium zucchini, grated
salt and pepper
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup black olives, chopped
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
4 eggs, separated

directions

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic and onions until the onions begin to look translucent. Add the herbs and cook for another few minutes. Add the zucchini and lower the heat. Cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove this from the heat, taste, and add salt and pepper to taste. Add the parsley and olives, and adjust seasonings if necessary. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix the flour and parmesan. Stir this into the zucchini mixture. Whisk the egg yolks and add them to the mixture. Then, beat the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the mixture.

Heat a skillet and add some oil for cooking. When the oil begins to sizzle, add the batter to the skillet (a la pancakes). From here, you can work the hash browns much like pancakes.

Carefully flip them over when they begin to brown. Don't allow them to burn. Between each set, inspect the pan to make sure there is enough oil so that you do not burn the next set.

Serve these with fresh tomatoes or salsa.
