These were great and made a lot. I ended up having to add a lot more salt and pepper but still great. A lot of my family members said it reminded them of egg foo young.

These sound too eggy. I make them a little differently. I use more zucchini, sometimes shredded yellow quash too. I shred till I have at least 2 cups. I also squeeze off as much liquid as I can. I add salt,pepper,garlic and lots of grated parm (not the powered junk in the tube but the good stuff) and 2 eggs. Cook em in butter and olive oil till crisp then lay out on a paper towel to drain. Hubby loves em!

Taking into account the other comments about too much egg, I used 1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini and 1/4 chopped onion. (I just put them in my mini processor.) Tasted slightly bland, so I added in a few Tbsp grated parmesean cheese, too. I tried it with 1 egg, but it didn't stick together in the pan. 2 eggs worked perfectly and made a dozen small hash browns. They tasted great!

Flavor was lovely but like a zucchini omlette. I am going to try with half the egg or using just egg white next time.

How do you shred the zuchini? Peal it first and then use a grater?

Hi! I'm new, I have had this recipe for years, my friend's husband is Lebonese & he made them for us (& shared the recipe). I love them & YES they do help with potato cravings. Thanks for reminding me of them.

flavor was ok, but too much egg. It really ended up being like a zucchini omlette. I will also try without egg or half the egg amount.
