Now this name is slightly misleading - this is not Zucchini bread or actual cake, but more like crab cakes. They look like potato cutlets or hash browns, and are absolutely delish served hot off the stove with ketchup or chutney. A good appetizer or tea-time snack, even to serve to guests!
Beat the egg, adding the onion, green chilies, mozzarella and flour.
Put the grated Zucchini in a clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out the moisture as well as you can.
Throw the zucchini into the egg mixture, and add the salt, black pepper and oregano, mixing well.
Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan. Drop the batter into the pan in small amounts, and let one side cook before you flip them over. Keep the heat to a medium to allow the zucchini to cook without burning the cakes.
You could probably also use them as patties for sandwiches! Slightly weird sandwiches. But they are definitely awesome served with sweet and sour sauce!
