Preparation
Step 1
Shred one medium zucchini, skin on. Note: DO NOT MAKE IT TOO FINE.
Step 2
Add salt to shredded zucchini, mixed well with your hands, and let it sit for ~5 min. There will be liquid coming out.
Step 3
Mixed the egg with the zucchini, add the flour, garlic powder, and onion powder, mix well to form a batter. It should be a little more solid than the pancake batter.
Step 4
Heat up a cast-iron frying pan on medium heat, spray with oil, and pour the batter in. You may need a spoon or spatula to help get the batter out and make it even in the pan.
Step 5
Cook ~10 min or until the edges turn solid. Flip the zucchini cake and cook the other side for ~5 min until both side are golden brown.
Step 6
Cool down for ~5 min. Top with mayonnaise or any other sauce you like
Stove temperature varies home by home. Adjust cooking time with the stove powder in your home
