   1       t            Baking powder
   1                    Egg
   2       tb           Olive oil
     1/2   ts           Salt
     1/4   ts           Pepper
   1       c            Cheddar cheese -- grated
   3       md           Zucchini -- grated, drained
                        - in a colander
   2                    Garlic cloves -- crushed
   2       tb           Onion -- finely chopped
   1       tb           Parsley -- minced

    Sift together the flour and baking powder.  Set aside. In a large
    bowl,   combine the egg, olive oil, 1/2 cup of the milk, salt and
    pepper. Beat to a smooth paste and gradually add sifted flour
    mixture (consistency will be very stiff).  Add grated cheese and
    remaining milk to make a smooth but stiff batter. Blend in grated
    zucchini, garlic, onion, and parsley. Heat the cooking oil to the
    deep-fry stage and drop in the batter by spoonfuls. Fry until
    golden.  Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Keep
    warm until all are cooked. Lightly salt to taste and serve
    immediately.
