Thread: fried zucchini recipe

Here's another way to have fries. Yep, I scooped out the center, sliced like fries, sprayed with olive oil, shook italian bread crumbs on top, and baked. Yummy. Used ranch dressing to dip them in.

I like to slice zucchini and saute with a mass of sliced onions, julienned carrots, celery, peppers and any other veggies that I might have and would go with this. Add some chopped tomatoes along with a little salt, fresh ground pepper and any other herbs/seasonings that strike my fancy at the time. Eat it as is, as a side dish ... with fresh grated parmesan.

Another ... same saute mixture without the tomatoes, but with some canned diced tomatoes, makes a good veggie type stew.

How about zucchini instead of lasagna noodles? I always thought this was weird, til I tried it and well, I'm a convert!

When sliced for breading and frying, how thick do you slice it?

I've made it paper thin, sauteed in butter with s/p .

Slice the Zucchini lengthwise, baste with Balsamic vinegar and grill it.

Sounds deliscious!

I slice long way and then spray with butter spray from WM. sprinkle with flour and cornmeal. A little sea salt and put them under the broiler. When brown turn and repeat.....
