1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the
food processor. Add the parsley and  nely chop, 3 to 4
pulses. Leaving the parsley in the bowl, remove the
chopping blade and replace with the shredding disc
assembly. Laying the vegetables horizontally in the feed
tube (trim to  t as needed), shred the potato, zucchini,
carrot and onion. Squeeze all excess liquid out of
vegetables by wrapping up in a clean towel and gently
wringing. Transfer all to a large mixing bowl. Add the
salt, pepper and  our and gently mix to fully combine.
Gradually add the beaten egg until the mixture just
holds together. You do not want the mixture to be too
wet or the  nal cakes will be too dense.
2. Put the oil into a large skillet set over medium-high
heat. When hot, drop pancake mixture by scant ¼-cup
spoonfuls evenly spaced in pan. Press down on top to
atten to about ¼-inch thickness. Cook about 4 to 6
minutes on each side or until crispy and light brown.
Repeat adding oil as needed, until all mixture has been
cooked off. Keep warm on a baking sheet lined with a
rack in a 200ºF oven.
3. Serve with warm applesauce, sour cream or crème
fraîche.
