- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 2 green onions, thinly sliced

- 2 eggs, beaten

- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

- Olive oil, for frying

- Greek yogurt or sour cream, for serving

- Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Zucchini:

   - Place the grated zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

3. Fry the Fritters:

   - Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough olive oil to coat the bottom.

   - Scoop about 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture into the skillet and flatten it slightly to form a fritter.

   - Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

   - Repeat with the remaining zucchini mixture, adding more olive oil to the skillet as needed.

4. Serve and Enjoy:
