Steps:
- Grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater. Mix the zucchini with 3/4 teaspoons of salt and place the zucchini in a fine mesh sieve and set aside to drain while you prep the rest of the ingredients.
- In a large bowl, grate the potato and onion on the smaller holes of the box grater. Add the eggs, flour, remaining 1/4 teaspoon, and ground black pepper.
- Mix to combine. Squeeze out as much of the liquid from the grated zucchini as possible. Discard the liquid. Add the zucchini to the rest of the fritter batter and mix to combine.
- Heat 1 - 2 Tablespoons of oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Spoon the batter into the skillet, using the back of the spoon to flatten them out, creating fritters. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Drain the fritters on a paper towel-lined plate. Continue pan-frying the fritters. If you're not serving them to the table immediately, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit before you start frying the fritters. Place the cooked fritters on a rack on top of a baking sheet to stay warm until you are ready to serve them. However, don't keep them in the oven for more than 20-30 minutes, or they will dry out.

Steps:
- 1. Chop the raw bacon into 1 inch strips. Cook in a skillet until crisp. Reserve 3 Tbsp drippings. Drain bacon on paper towels, set aside.
- 2. Wash and peel the potatoes, dice into medium cubes. Wash the zucchini, trim ends, quarter and dice. Peel onions, dice into medium chunks.
- 3. Add the reserved bacon drippings to a skillet. Heat the pan. Add the potatoes, cook until slightly tender and browned. Add the zucchini and onions, cook until tender and potatoes are done. Add the chopped bacon, mix well. Turn the heat up, cook until brown on one side, turn over and brown other side.
- 4. Note: I usually cook it a bit longer to get some of the moisture out. It is good topped with fresh tomatoes and also good for breakfast served with eggs.
