1. Place a colander over a bowl and line with a clean, thin cotton towel or cheesecloth. Add grated zucchini, then sprinkle with salt. Let sit for at least 30 minutes or up to an hour for the zucchini to release as much water as possible. Pick up the cloth and wring out any excess liquid.
2. Mix together parmesan cheese, eggs, green onions, garlic, basil, nutmeg, onion powder, and black pepper in a bowl. Add zucchini and stir to combine.
3. Heat butter and olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Working in batches, form golf ball sized patties and fry until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining mixture.
