Heart of Palm Rice & Zucchini Patties

Preparation

1. In a large bowl, combine the heart of palm white rice, eggs, grated zucchini, shredded cheese, herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper.

2. Mix well until the mixture holds together. Form small patties with the mixture.

3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil.

4. Cook the patties for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

5. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels if needed.

6. Sprinkle with parsley to taste and serve hot.

7. Chef’s Tip: To ensure the patties hold together and get crispy, refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes before forming the patties. This helps the ingredients set and makes them easier to cook.
