Hashed-brown Zucchini

1 1/2 lb zucchini
1/2 t salt
2 eggs
6 T grated parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced or pressed (or 1/4 t dried)
1/4 c butter or margarine

Coarsely shred zucchini (you should have about 4 cups) and combine
with salt in a medium-size bowl. Let stand for about 15 minutes.
Squeeze with your hands to press out moisture. Stir in eggs, cheese
and garlic. Melt 2 T of the butter in a wide frying pan over medium-
high heat. Mound about 2 T of the zucchini mixture in 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. Makes 10 pieces:
