Mix drained zucchini, breadcrumbs, flour, eggs, grated mozzarella cheese, cream, minced garlic and finely chopped dill in a large bowl. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Add a little salt and black pepper to taste and season with salt. The mixture should be mixed until completely combined.
Oil preparation:
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. A small drop of batter should make a hissing sound when dropped into the oil, which should be hot enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
The patties are formed by scooping about a tablespoon of the zucchini mixture onto each patty, then dropping it into the hot oil. Each patty is then fried. Using the back of a spoon, gently flatten the mixture. To prevent the oil from dropping in temperature and the patties from getting greasy, it is important to fry them in batches. This will prevent the pan from becoming overcrowded.
To achieve a golden brown and crispy texture, fry each side for about three to four minutes. Adjust the temperature as needed to avoid burning.
Before serving, remove excess oil from the patties by draining them on paper towels. For a cool contrast, serve the dish hot with cucumber slices on the side.
