Grate the zucchini and carrots using a box grater. Transfer them to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
Finely chop the green onions and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrots, green onions, and garlic.
Add the all-purpose flour, egg, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the vegetable mixture. Stir until well combined and a thick batter forms.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter per fritter and drop into the skillet. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon to shape into a patty.
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Work in batches, adding more olive oil as needed between batches.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve the vegetable fritters warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a dollop of sour cream.
