    List of Ingredients




    1 pound zucchini -- grated
    1 teaspoon kosher salt -- or 3/4 teaspoon table salt
    3/4 cup feta cheese -- crumbled
    1 large egg -- lightly beaten
    3 green onions -- thinly sliced
    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1/4 cup pine nut -- chopped
    1 tablespoon fresh dill -- chopped or 1 teaspoon dried
    1 1/2 teaspoons oregano -- chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried
    1 garlic clove -- finely chopped
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper -- freshly milled
    Olive oil

    Recipe



    Combine the grated zucchini and kosher salt. Set aside for 5 minutes (no more,
    or it will be mush). Rinse in cold water and squeeze dry in a kitchen
    towel or press in a strainer or colander until dry. Combine the cheese,
    egg, green onions, flour, pine nuts, dill, oregano, garlic, and pepper in a
    large bowl; fold in the zucchini. Form into 24 small cakes (about 2
    tablespoons of mixture for each) and saute in olive oil, turning once, until
    browned, about 3 minutes on each side. Serve mmediately.
