Zucchini & Sweet Potato Fritters

Well it's zucchini time around here and my favorite way to eat them is in fritters.  Fried alone they're pretty plain and don't have much flavor, so I add grated sweet potatoes and feta cheese, along with a healthy dose of cumin.  We're getting our first sweet corn from the field, so that along with the fritters makes a nice supper.
