02.05.2020 Dishes for children

Zucchini Cake is a delicious and easy to prepare dish. A great example of how you can decorate and diversify your everyday menu with the same standard set of products that we use daily. And most importantly, it is easy to do, spending a minimum of time and effort.

In fact, our cake is all the same zucchini pancakes. However, decorated with a spicy "cream" based on sour cream or mayonnaise. Powdered with grated cheese, supplemented with a variety of fillings, they appear in a completely new, very attractive and appetizing form.

I will make a version of the squash cake with a light vegetable filling and sour cream, but using this recipe as a guide, you can cook completely different versions of this dish each time.

Zucchini “cakes” have a neutral and very delicate taste, which allows you to safely experiment with the components of both the “cream” and the filling. From vegetables and meat to ham, caviar, squid and fish pieces, whatever you like and find in the fridge. Shall we start?

Prepare the ingredients according to the list:

  • zucchini, chicken eggs, flour - for preparing the layers of the future zucchini cake
  • tomatoes, cheese and green onions - for stuffing
  • sour cream, garlic, a little salt and ground black pepper - for "cream"

Grate the zucchini and squeeze out the excess juice.

Add 5 eggs, some salt, ground black pepper and mix well.

Add flour. I add about 10-12 heaping tablespoons of flour. Thoroughly mix the dough ingredients. The dough should be thick, like for making pancakes.

Heat up the pan. Lubricate with vegetable oil and, laying out a portion of the dough, level it with a spoon along the bottom of the pan, giving it the shape of a pancake.

These lush pancakes will become the cakes of our zucchini cake. Fry the cakes for a few minutes on both sides, until golden brown.

While the cakes are fried, you can prepare the "cream" for our cake. To do this, mix sour cream, a few chopped garlic cloves. Add salt, ground black pepper to taste. You can additionally add fresh herbs, use cream cheese, mayonnaise or a combination of sour cream and mayonnaise instead of sour cream.

Prepare the filling for the cake. I chopped tomatoes and green onions, grated cheese.

When the cakes are ready, they must be cooled before proceeding with the assembly of the cake. In a pan with a diameter of 22 centimeters, I get 7-8 cakes.

Lubricate the chilled zucchini cake with the prepared cream. Lay out a layer of filling.

Repeat layers.

Decorate the zucchini cake as desired. I've been in a hurry all morning, and that's probably why the theme of watches came up.

The zucchini cake is ready. It is advisable to cool it and let it brew in the refrigerator for several hours before serving. But to be honest, we always skip this stage and move on to the most delicious - to the tasting.

Cut the cake into portions and serve. Bon Appetit!

During the season of vegetables, such a dish can be made at least every day. It is prepared easily and quickly from available ingredients.

Cooking

Grate the zucchini on a coarse grater. Young ones do not need to be peeled, but in old ones it is better to remove the skin and seeds. Salt the vegetables, stir and leave for 15 minutes.

During this time, the zucchini will release juice. Put them in a colander and remember well with your hands so that the glass is excess liquid. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl, add the eggs, finely chopped dill and pepper and stir to combine.

Pour in the flour and again carefully combine everything. The dough should not be watery. So you can add more flour than indicated in the ingredients.

The cake is very soft and airy. And zucchini pancakes, which serve as cakes, go well with any fillings. So they can be baked separately.

Ingredients

  • a few tablespoons of vegetable oil;
  • 1 small zucchini;
  • ½ teaspoon of sugar;

Add flour and knead the dough. Pour in some vegetable oil and the remaining milk and mix well. You should have a thick dough.

Heat oil in a frying pan and lay out part of the dough. Spread it all over the pan with a spatula. Bake the pancake for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. In the same way, fry the shortbreads from the remaining dough.

As a filling, you can use just fried mushrooms. However, tomatoes and cheese will give the dish an even brighter taste. Cakes also turn out to be unusual: carrots and oatmeal are added to zucchini.

  • ½ bunch of dill;
  • ½ bunch parsley + a few sprigs for garnish

  • 3 large tomatoes.

Cooking

If the zucchini is old, remove the skin and seeds. Coarsely grate the zucchini and carrots into one bowl. Salt the vegetables and stir. Put them in a colander and leave for 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, chop the onion and fry until golden brown in a pan with hot oil. Add chopped into small pieces and cook for a few minutes. Put the chopped garlic into the pan, stir, fry for another minute and remove from heat.

While the mushrooms are cooling, carefully squeeze the zucchini and carrots with your hands to remove excess liquid from them. Add eggs, stir, add oatmeal and mix the ingredients well again.

Heat oil in a clean frying pan, lay out part of the dough and smooth it out. Fry under the lid for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

To flip the pancake, you can tip it on the lid.

Make a few more cakes from the remaining dough.

Mix mushrooms with sour cream and chopped herbs. Grate the cheese and cut the tomatoes into thin circles.

Place the first cake on a serving platter. Spread some of the mushroom filling over it, sprinkle with cheese, lay out the tomatoes and lightly salt.

Repeat until you run out of cakes. The last layer should be cheese. Decorate the finished cake with parsley leaves.

This delicate cake is baked in the oven. It can be served both hot and cold.

A classic recipe for zucchini cake can be called a version with tomatoes.

Zucchini cake - what to take for cooking:

  • five young zucchini;
  • 3 eggs;
  • 6 tomato;
  • 150 g flour;
  • 200 ml of mayonnaise;
  • 4 cloves of garlic;
  • to taste we take greens (dill, parsley), spices (salt, pepper);
  • oil for frying squash cakes.

Read on to learn how to make a simple zucchini cake:

  1. Zucchini, preferably young, washed, peeled, and chopped with a coarse grater. Lightly salt and wait 15 minutes. The last manipulation will remove excess liquid from zucchini.
  2. In order not to waste time in vain, we will spend it preparing the tomato and garlic dressing. Cut the tomatoes into thin, neat circles. Garlic dressing is made on the basis of mayonnaise and garlic passed through a press.
  3. Next, we recline the zucchini in a colander and, squeezing the mass with our hands, remove excess liquid.
  4. After completing the spin, we break eggs into the squash mass, add chopped greens, spices. And, having mixed well, we proceed to the next step: adding a sticky base - flour.
  5. Don't worry if, after adding the whole mass of flour, your dough still has not reached the perfect consistency, like on pancakes. Remember that we are cooking on zucchini, and they may require more flour depending on the humidity. In order not to worry about the possibility of destruction of squash cakes, add a little starch. It will hold the dough together and make it easy to flip the pancakes.
  6. The dough is ready. It remains to spread it on a smeared and hot frying pan, distributing it over the surface with an ordinary tablespoon.
  7. Zucchini pancakes are prepared in the same way as ordinary pancakes - until fully cooked and on both sides. At the same time, the cooking time will be slightly longer, since our pancakes should be denser and thicker.
  8. After frying all the shortbreads, put them on a paper towel and wait for cooling.
  9. The cakes have cooled down, the tomatoes have been chopped, and the garlic dressing has been waiting in the wings for a long time, so let's start assembling the zucchini pancake cake:
  • Each zucchini pancake is first coated with garlic dressing. For the perfect taste, we recommend taking a sample from the cake - cutting off a small piece. If the amount of spices is not enough, then supplement it with cream.
  • Put the tomatoes on the dressing.

If desired, lightly sprinkle everything with chopped herbs, let the cake soak a little, and we can safely enjoy its amazing taste.
