Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Place grated zucchini in a colander; sprinkle lightly with salt. Let zucchini sit for about 30 minutes, allowing it to drain. Squeeze to remove additional liquid - zucchini should be fairly dry.
  2. Place zucchini and bread crumbs in a large bowl and mix together.
  3. Place egg, Old Bay, Dijon, mayo, lemon juice and parsley in a small bowl. Mix well.
  4. Pour egg mixture into zucchini-bread crumb mixture, and mix gently and thoroughly. Form into 8 patties the size of crab cakes. Heat a small amount of oil in a saute pan, and cook patties on both sides, browning well.
  5. Serve with tartar sauce, chopped capers, fresh basil and/or lemon wedges. Goes really well with halved sun gold or cherry tomatoes.
