Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 3 chicken eggs
  • Water
  • 1 zucchini
  • 2 small spoonfuls of salt
  • Olive oil
  • 1 cup rice
  • 2 glasses of hot water
  • Parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Garlic, minced
  • Green onion, finely chopped
  • 2 additional chicken eggs
  • 1 spoonful of flour

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place 3 chicken eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Let cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and allow to cool. Peel the eggs once cooled.
  2. While the eggs are boiling, wash and grate the zucchini. Sprinkle with 2 small spoonfuls of salt, stir, and let rest for 10 minutes. Squeeze out the excess liquid from the zucchini.
  3. In a medium pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the rice and fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in 2 glasses of hot water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let cook for 10 minutes or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the grated zucchini, peeled boiled eggs (chopped), finely chopped green onion, and parsley. Add 2 raw chicken eggs, a spoonful of flour, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine.
  5. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Spoon the zucchini and egg mixture into the skillet, forming small patties. Fry each side for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve the zucchini and egg patties over a bed of cooked rice. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a sprinkle of salt. Enjoy your Zucchini and Egg Rice Delight!
