Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini (6 ounces) or 4 medium carrots, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons matzo meal
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • Cooking oil

Instructions

  1. Place zucchini or carrots in a steamer basket and steam over boiling water until very tender (about 8 minutes for zucchini and about 15 minutes for carrots). Drain; mash with a potato masher.
  2. Beat egg in a medium bowl; stir in mashed zucchini or carrots, matzo meal, salt and pepper.
