Are wonderful and they freeze just great. Here's my method for what I call "minimalist fritters" (minimalist because there's little flour).

Grate as many zucchini or summer squash as you want (squeeze out the water with your potato masher), then mix with a proportionate amount of kernels off fresh corn. Sprinkle with a little flour, a little less cornmeal, eggs, chives, and a bit of hot pepper.

Fry in olive oil. To freeze, put on a cookie sheet and freeze, then put between wax paper in a plastic freezer bag.

These are the greatest items to pull out of the freezer to accompany a meal. Because they're flat, you can make a ton of them and they hardly take up any space.
