Zucchini Hash Browns
Yield: 10 patties

1 1/2 pounds zucchini
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
About 1/4 cup butter or margarine

Coarsely shred zucchini (there should be about 4 cups). Toss zucchini with salt in a colander set over a bowl. Let stand for about 15 minutes. Squeeze with your hands to press out excess moisture. Place drained zucchini in a bowl and stir in eggs, cheese and garlic.

Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop about 2 tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the pan and flatten slightly to make a patty. Repeat until pan is filled, but don't crowd patties in pan. Cook patties, turning once, until golden on both sides (about 6 minutes).

Lift out and arrange on a warm platter; keep warm. Repeat to cook remaining zucchini mixture, adding more butter as needed.
