Preparation Time: 30 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins

- bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil, and place the potato into the water. boil until tender, about 20 minutes; remove and let cool. when cool enough to handle, finely dice.
- in a bowl, mix together the cooked potato, zucchini, egg, onion, mint leaves, feta cheese, and bread crumbs to make a mixture that holds together when pressed lightly.
- place flour into a separate shallow dish. form the zucchini mixture into small patties, and dredge patties in flour on both sides.
- heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. pan-fry the zucchini patties until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. drain the patties on paper towels; serve hot.
