zucchini pancakes - recipe

i was going to post the recipe on facebook, so i could just tag erin & get her the recipe. but since i need to post here more often to meet my goal, this is me using my noodle. :)

zucchini pancakes (from jim the sales consultant at schepel)
4 cups grated zucchini
2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt

grate zucchini into colander, then press moisture out with a paper plate (the recipe does say paper plate ... i wonder if he meant paper towel?). place zucchini and remaining ingredients into a medium mixing bowl. stir well until batter is thick, not runny. add extra flour if necessary to thicken mixture. preheat griddle or iron skillet over medium to medium-high flame. spoon heaping tablespoons of mixture onto the lightly greased cooking surface. cook until brown, then turn and brown other side. serve with butter.

the changes of 'becca: i didn't grate my zucchini, i chunked it. however, i think grating will give you a more consistent batter, and that will help it cook more evenly. i did not measure my flour. any time a recipe says you may need to add more to thicken, i don't measure to begin with. i just toss some in & add more until it feels right. i didn't freshly grate my parmesan cheese. i had some in a container in my fridge and topped off the measuring cup with another italian cheese blend when the parmesan ran out. i didn't have fresh garlic, so i used garlic powder. i did not serve with butter. :)
