Put the grated zucchini in a strainer add some salt and let it be for 10 minutes, then press the zucchini to get some of the liquid out. in a bowl, add the zucchini, onion, garlic, cheese, eggs, buckwheat, flour, and chives. add salt and pepper to taste.

Works well to make in advance, keep in the fridge, and then heat for 10 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees before serving.
