  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    Prepare the ingredients. Zucchini for such a dish is better to use milk maturity, when there are practically no seeds in them, and the skin is very tender and soft. Of course, if desired, you can fry zucchini and quite mature, removing the skin from them and removing the core with seeds, but in the finished dish, after all, such a zucchini will not be as tasty as a young one. Wash the zucchini, dry it on cotton towels. Cut off the tips on both sides.

    Step 2.

    Cut the zucchini into circles no more than one centimeter thick. Sprinkle the circles of zucchini with salt and put them in a bowl. Then we drain the extracted juice from the dish. We pour wheat flour into a plate and roll zucchini circles in it. Shake off the excess flour from the zucchini.

    Step 3.

    Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan with a thick bottom. We warm it up. We put the cooked zucchini slices on the heated oil. Sprinkle with ground pepper on top if desired, it is no longer necessary to salt, the zucchini has saturated enough salt. Fry the zucchini over medium heat until browned on one side.

    Then turn over and fry on the second side. If the circles of zucchini turned out to be thick, and it seems that they are not fried and will crunch in the finished dish, then you can cover the pan with a lid and hold the zucchini in the pan for a few more minutes so that it is better baked inside, but not burnt outside.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    We remove the zucchini from the frying pan on a plate covered with a paper towel so that the excess oil is absorbed into the napkin, and the zucchini in the finished dish does not taste very greasy. We do this with all the cooked zucchini. Sprinkle hot zucchini with garlic passed through the press. Or add minced garlic to the sauce, which we will serve to the zucchini. We serve fried zucchini in flour to the table, with sour cream, mayonnaise or other sauce if desired. Enjoy your meal!
