- 4 cups nettles
- 6 eggs
- 2 1/2 cups bread crumbs
- 1 bunch parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
- salt to taste
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add nettles and cook uncovered until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain and chop finely.
- Mix nettles, eggs, bread crumbs, parsley, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, and salt together in a bowl until mixture is combined. Dip hands in warm water and shape mixture into small patties.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry patties in hot oil, turning halfway, until cooked through and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
