Step by step preparation of meat pancakes with zucchini and semolina:
1. Wash the zucchini, cut off the tails on both sides, wash and dry. If old fruits are used, then remove large seeds from them and cut off the thick rind. It is not necessary to do this with young individuals.
2. Take a coarse grater and grate the courgette. If you have a food processor, then use it to speed up the cooking process.
3. Place the meat grinder with the middle wire rack and pass the meat through it. Wash and dry it first. If there is film and conductors, cut them off. Also remove excess fat, otherwise the pancakes will be too greasy.
4. Pour semolina to the food and beat in the eggs. Season with salt and ground pepper and add any spices and herbs to taste.
5. Stir the minced meat and leave to stand for 20 minutes, so that the semolina absorbs the juice from the zucchini. The groats will swell and will not squeak on the teeth in the finished cutlets.
6. Place the frying pan on the stove, add oil and heat. Spread the minced meat with a tablespoon, forming it into an oval shape. Bring the heat to medium and fry the pancakes for 5 minutes until golden brown.
7. Turn them over and cook pancakes for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Serve them warm with your favorite sauce.
