The word fritter usually conjures up something heavy and deep-fried, but these zucchini fritters are as light as can be. Serve them as a light vegetarian meal or mezze (small plate) with tzatziki and a Greek salad, or as a side dish to my chicken kabobs, grilled chicken or or Greek-style lamb burgers.
Transfer the zucchini to a fine mesh strainer, then toss with the salt to draw out the liquid.
Let the shredded zucchini sit for about ten minutes, and then use your hands to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. As you can see, there will be a lot of liquid.
Whisk the eggs in a medium mixing bowl.
