Transcript

If you think zucchini is boring then this is for you. This is Italian zucchini fritti, aka fried zucchini. And it's a vegetable so they say it's healthy. It is super simple to make at home. You thinly slice zucchini into these little spears and then salt and let it sit for 15 minutes to draw out the excess water. Zucchini has a high water content, this will help with the flavor and the texture once you squeeze out some of that water. Then bread it by dipping it in an egg wash and then gluten-free flour if you're like me and have a gluten allergy. For the cooking, it's actually pretty easy. Fill a small pot up with 2 inches of avocado oil and let that warm up to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Work in batches and fry off the zucchini until it takes about 3 minutes until they're golden brown and then dry them on a rack. Finish with salt and you have your new favorite zucchini dish.
