Zucchini Pancakes
Zucchini or squash a healthy veggie keeps a special place in my day to day menu. Easy to cook and light on the stomach and also due to its versatility,  prepares a number of dishes like pasta,  pancakes, bread,  salads and muffins.
Zucchini is my favourite one because of its health benefits that it is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties which help in slow ageing and most of the zucchini’s nutritional punch — including fibre, vitamin C, and Potassium
I prepare savoury pancakes or hash browns quite often with this in the breakfast. So it is a good start of the day with the healthy breakfast which is quite filling too.These are savoury pancakes which are made of two types of grains. One is besan or gram flour and other is semolina or sooji. Both the grains are healthy and beneficial for the body. A batter is made and grated zucchini or squash is added to make these tasty and healthy fritters. Sooji make them crispier and add of these veggies make them a perfect and guilt-free recipe
