- Yields:
-
12 patties
- Serves:
- 6
ingredients
- 2 bunches fresh curly-leaf parsley or 2 bunches flat leaf parsley
- 1 1⁄2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 6 eggs
- cooking oil or nonstick cooking spray
directions
- Wash the parsley and remove it from the larger stems. Chop the parsley in batches, and put it in a large mixing bowl. 2 bunches should come out to about 5 cups of chopped parsley. Note: It is not recommended to use an electric food processor, as this will chop it too small and make the parsley mixture too runny.
- Add mozzerella cheese and eggs, and mix well with your hand or a whisk.
- Preheat your griddle on medium-high heat. Once heated, use a small amount of oil or nonstick cooking spray.
- Scoop about 1/2 cup of the parsley mixture onto the griddle to make one patty, and pat down until it is about the size and shape of a pancake. Place as many other patties on the griddle as will fit, leaving a couple inches between patties (as if you were cooking pancakes.)
- Cook for a few minutes on one side, then flip, cooking until egg is cooked, browning slightly if you prefer it that way.
- Repeat with remaining mixture.
- If desired, squeeze lemon on top to serve. It is wonderful with rice and salad with a basic oil and vinegar based dressing.
