Description

Discover how to create irresistible Crispy Zucchini with this easy recipe. Enjoy golden-brown zucchini slices with a crispy Parmesan coating that’s perfect as a snack or side dish.


Ingredients

2 zucchini

Salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

100 grams Parmesan cheese, grated

1 teaspoon marjoram

1 teaspoon paprika

3 eggs, beaten

100 grams breadcrumbs

50 grams flour

Olive oil for frying


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Zucchini:
    • Slice the zucchini and sprinkle with salt. Allow to sit for a few minutes to release excess moisture, then squeeze out liquid.
  2. Prepare the Coating:
    • In one bowl, mix breadcrumbs and flour.
    • In another bowl, combine beaten eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, marjoram, and paprika.
  3. Coat the Zucchini:
    • Roll zucchini slices in the breadcrumb mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, ensuring each slice is coated evenly.
  4. Fry the Zucchini:
    • Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
    • Fry coated zucchini slices for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve:
    • Drain excess oil on paper towels and serve hot, optionally garnished with additional salt and pepper.

Notes

Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.

For a healthier option, bake the zucchini slices in the oven instead of frying.
