Instructions

  1. Prepare the zucchini: Grate the zucchini using a fine grater. Transfer it to a bowl, squeeze out the excess liquid, and discard the juice.
  2. Prepare the batter: Add the eggs to the grated zucchini, followed by the salt, kefir or yogurt, and chopped parsley. Mix well. Gradually add the flour, stirring continuously until a smooth batter forms.
  3. Rest the batter: Add the sunflower or olive oil and baking soda, then mix thoroughly. The batter should be smooth and pourable, similar to a traditional crepe batter. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes.
  4. Cook the crepes: Lightly grease a preheated frying pan with sunflower oil. Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan and swirl it to form a thin, even layer. Cook each crepe over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Transfer the cooked crepes to a plate and brush each one lightly with butter or olive oil before serving.
