Zucchini Crab Cakes



2 cups grated zucchini
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 chopped onion
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 bread crumbs
1 can crab meat
Sea salt
Olive oil

Put grated zucchini in a colander and place a paper towel over the top.  Let the water drain from the zucchini, 20-30 minutes.  Meanwhile, sautee the onions in olive oil until soft.  Once the zucchini is ready, combine all the ingredients, including the onion, except the olive oil.  Fold the mixture gently until incorporated.  Using the same pan, heat and add a spoonful of olive oil.  Using a large spoon, place a spoonful of the mixture into the pan, flattening and shaping as needed, into a patty.  Once the bottom is golden, turn the patty and brown the other side.  If using a large pan, you can make 3-4 patties at a time.  Add more olive oil as needed.  Remove and drain on a paper towel.  I made approximately 15 patties.
