Preparation of Zucchini Pancakes with Cheese Fondue

  • First, prepare the fondue by placing the heavy cream in a saucepan and heating it until almost boiling.

  • When bubbles start to form, add the grated cheese and chopped Gorgonzola and mix.

  • Melt the cheeses thoroughly, perhaps lowering the heat.

    Meanwhile, chop the walnuts and once the fondue is ready, incorporate them, mix and season with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.

  • Set aside the fondue.

  • To prepare the Zucchini Pancakes with Fondue, first wash the zucchinis, then trim them and cut them into coarse pieces.

    Peel and coarsely chop the onion.

  • Place the vegetables in a blender and blend for a few seconds, then add the eggs, flour, salt, and pepper.

  • Blend everything until you have a lump-free and fairly thick batter.

  • Now you are ready to cook the Zucchini Pancakes with Fondue, so heat a thick-bottomed non-stick pan very well.

    If it is not non-stick, lightly oil the pan and distribute the oil with a piece of kitchen paper.

  • Gently drop two heaping tablespoons of batter for each pancake, making sure not to place them too close together as they tend to spread.

  • After 2 to 3 minutes, you will see bubbles appear on the surface, which means it’s time to flip them.

    Use a smooth spatula and flip them with a quick, decisive motion, cooking the Zucchini Pancakes with Fondue for another 3 minutes.

  • Now everything is ready, as the Zucchini Pancakes are ready, stack them on top of each other, making about 4 or 5 per serving.

  • Quickly heat the fondue and drizzle it over the Pancakes starting from the center, allowing the fondue to slide down and flavor them all.

  • Finally, decorate each Pancake with a few walnut halves and serve at the table.
