Fried Zucchini




One of the things that excites me most about summer is Pap's garden. All the fresh veggies he grows every year...  Mmm, a cook-aholic's dream! It's fantastic to be able to walk outside to the backyard and grab whatever wonderfully fresh grown vegetable you please. Today's pick was zucchini. FRIED ZUCCHINI! (mouth watering) This is a summer tradition for my family. It's not hard to make (just 5 ingredients!) but it's absolutely delicious. Today was the first day i made it this is and it turned out as close to perfect as it could have. Yumm! I'm not gonna write any measurements for this recipe because it really depends on how much you're making. It's pretty easy to eyeball how much you'll need.


Fried Zucchini Recipe

zucchini, sliced
flour
egg(s)
buttermilk
bread crumbs

  • Slice your zucchini in about 1/4 inch slices. Set your zucchini aside. Put the flour in either a ziplock bag or plate (whichever you like using more to cover your item in). Mix the egg(s) and a splash of buttermilk in a bowl. Place the bread crumbs in another plate or ziplock bag.  
 
  • Cover your zucchini in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. 
  • Fry in about an inch-2 inches of 350 degree oil for 2-3 minutes. You want them to become a nice golden brown but not too fast so that the zucchini has time to cook as well.
