→ Veggie Roll Ingredients

01 - 1 carrot, freshly grated
02 - 1 zucchini, grated and ready
03 - 1 potato, grated fresh
04 - Two big eggs
05 - 100 grams (3.5 oz) of grated cheese
06 - A bunch of parsley, finely sliced
07 - Two garlic cloves, minced finely
08 - Pinch of sea salt and black pepper, according to taste
09 - Your go-to Italian seasoning
10 - A dash of smoked paprika
11 - 4 hefty spoons of oatmeal
12 - 2 spoons of plain flour
13 - Olive oil to cook

→ Saucy Dip Ingredients

14 - 1 tablespoon mayo, creamy and rich
15 - 1 tablespoon sour cream, thick and tangy
16 - 1 cucumber, diced in tiny pieces
17 - A tiny pinch of salt

# Instructions:

01 - Grate the zucchini and sprinkle some salt over it in a colander. Let it rest for ten minutes to drain excess water. While that’s happening, grate the carrot and the potato. Squeeze your zucchini super dry before moving on.
02 - Bring out a large bowl, toss in the grated zucchini (squeezed dry), carrot, potato, eggs, grated cheese, garlic, parsley, and all the spices. Fold in the oatmeal and flour and give it all a good mix until the texture looks just right.
03 - Take bits of the mixture in your hands and roll them into small, log-like shapes. Don’t worry about perfection, just make sure they hold together nicely.
04 - Warm some olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Gently place the rolls into the hot oil and cook for 3-4 minutes each side until they look crispy and golden.
05 - While those rolls cool down on paper towels, whip together the sour cream, mayonnaise, cucumber bites, and a pinch of salt. Stir till smooth and ready to serve.

# Notes:

01 - This dish is a clever way to use up leftover veggies and serves as a tasty starter or light snack.
02 - Squeezing the zucchini well will help keep the rolls crispy once cooked.
03 - For meal prep, make these ahead of time and pop them in a warm oven (175°C/350°F) to reheat before serving.
