Recipe

Slice the zucchini into even, flat pieces.
Lay the zucchini on a tray and lightly sprinkle with salt to draw out moisture.
Once moisture appears on the surface, press down firmly with a kitchen towel to remove all excess water.
Dredge the prepared zucchini in flour, then egg wash, then breadcrumbs, one at a time.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add generous amounts of oil.
Fry the zucchini until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Serve with sweet chili sauce or light soy sauce according to preference.

Slice zucchini, salt it, then pat dry thoroughly.
Coat in flour, egg wash, then breadcrumbs in order.
Fry in a pan with plenty of oil until golden on both sides.

Cooking tips

Removing all moisture after salting is essential to prevent the coating from falling off and to ensure maximum crispiness.
Breadcrumbs burn easily, so it’s best to cook them over medium-low heat for even browning.
