2 large eggs

1/4 cucumber, grated and squeezed to remove excess moisture
1 clove garlic, minced

Grate the zucchini and place it in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Spoon the zucchini mixture into the skillet to form fritters. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
While the fritters are cooking, prepare the tzatziki dipping sauce. In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
