Shred the carrots in your food processor using the finest grating disk or on the finest holes of a box grater.
Place the shredded carrots in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.

In a 10- to 12-inch nonstick sauté pan, heat the oil.
Add the carrot mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, and cook until each fritter is golden brown on both sides.
Transfer the fritters to a serving platter and repeat until you have used all the carrot mixture.
Sprinkle with feta and serve with lemon wedges on the side. Makes 32 to 36 frittelle.
