Zucchini Fritters

Nothing terribly original here, just a method that worked out once so maybe it will next time also ...

1 large zucchini, grated
place on paper towel, sprinkle with salt, let sit 2 min, add towel on top and press to extract some water

mix 1/4 c cornmeal and 1/2 c white flour, 1 tsp baking soda, another pinch salt, any desired herbs. toss the zucchini in this dry mixture to coat

beat 2 egg whites till frothy, add 2 Tbs olive or canola oil and continue beating, then mix half into zukes and fold in other half

form mixture into patties, using a little extra flour/cornmeal to coat your hands if needed, and drop into pre-heated cast iron skillet to shallow fry in garlic butter or garlic oil till crisp each side

I like serving it topped with an herbed white bean salad or a fried egg and fresh greens.
