Tasty summer veg dish

Very light and great with grilled lamb chops. I added another egg since I was skeptical about them staying together. Also I suggest patting them down with the back of a spatula as they cook so they are fairly thin Will definitely do again.
pretty tasty

I liked this recipe although I did add some cornmeal to it to crisp it up a bit. I think it would be really good with a cucumber yogurt sauce.
great recipe for extra zucchini

This recipe was quick, easy and delicious, however, make sure you keep the cakes small enough so that they cook all the way through.
Yummy

Very easy to make and very good. I think that a little salt is needed. Be sure to make them thin or they brown to quickly on the outside and don't cook through. Great alternative recipe for zucchini.
Not great

I would prefer a little more subtlety and/or balance in the flavors; the feta is very overpowering. It is a suitable side dish for a very basic entree such as a roast, but there are better side dishes with a Greek influence out there.
An Interesting Zucchini Dish

Despite the multitude of ingredients and procedures, this dish was quite easy to make, and turned out wonderfully. I personally added a little extra garlic and feta cheese in my mixture, but that was just personal preference. I wouldn't say that adding more overpowered the dish, but that is just preference. One piece of advice that I would give is to dry the zucchini with a paper towel rather than a strainer, as when I tried to make the recipie the first time, I used a strainer, which left more moisture in the zucchini than the recipie probably wanted. This didn't ruin the recipie at all, it just required a little extra cooking time to get more of the moisture out. If you want a fun activity, or something new with zucchini, I highly reccomend this, as well as Curried Zucchini Soup (link below). -Kelvena http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_27814,00.html

We love zucchini in any way shape or form so when I saw this, I had to try it on my family. Absolutely wonderful the way it is, but of course... I had to play... more of everything for seasoning... I did not chop up the pine nuts, just left them whole(saves some time,) put shredded and drained zucchini in a salad spinner then wrapped all in paper towels for several minutes. This way... not too wet at all. Dropped by rounded tablespoon into oil and flattened somewhat and fried.
Great side dish!

These were very easy to make. The only thing was that the mixture is a little runny, and it didn't say anything in the recipe about that, and I thought I did somthing wrong. Even though it's running it holds together in the pan. Will make again. Family loved them...
versatile

This recipe is enjoyed by folks who'd never otherwise touch zucchini. I would like to offer one hint: the cakes will fall to pieces if the moisture content isn't just right. To remedy this, use "egg rings"; set the rings, sprayed with no stick, in your pan and smooth in the desired amount of batter. Cook, then flip the whole thing; the ring will drop down & you can remove it when the cake is fully set. We like these with plain lamb meatballs or grilled lamb leg.
Wonderful & Easy

Great taste, nice texture. You REALLY have to pay attention to the "drying" of the zucchini! Pat, don't squeeze, but get it dry! Too wet and they fall apart while cooking.

These were a really nice way to make zucchini. It was a nice and simple recipe to make. My family found that next time we would add another garlic clove and more onion to the mix for a bit more zip. Or if possible use one of the new flavored feta cheeses that are now available. All in all they were a very nice side dish. I will definitely be making these again.
Great zucchini cakes

I like zucchini cakes, but these are our favorite. The fresh dill and feta really give them a nice flavor.
