There are recipes in which it is proposed to fry garlic along with zucchini. But this is not entirely correct, as high temperatures kill the fresh and pungent aroma of garlic, adding bitterness to the dish. In this recipe, we will add garlic when a golden crust appears on the vegetable rings.

4. Pour oil into a frying pan and heat it up. The vegetables should be deep-fried in oil and the bottom of the pan should be lightly and evenly coated.

5. Put the zucchini in a frying pan in the oil. Well heated should sizzle. Fry over medium heat.

9. Zucchini absorbs fat well, so after frying they need to be laid out on a paper towel so that the glass has excess oil (half a minute will be enough).

So choose what you prefer. Then transfer the vegetables with herbs and garlic to a serving plate.

Fried zucchini with garlic and mayonnaise are ready, serve! Here is such a simple and quick recipe with a photo, bon appetit!

When it comes to vegetable dishes, zucchini is the last thing to remember. Apparently because of their unexpressed taste and aroma.

But in fact, it is easier to cook from zucchini than from other vegetables. They do not contain bitterness and harmful substances like eggplants. They cook faster than potatoes or carrots.

There are practically no contraindications regarding their use, which cannot be said about some other vegetables, such as cabbage, peas or beets, despite their beneficial properties.

Zucchini does not require lengthy cleaning. If they are young, then both the pulp, which does not yet contain seeds, and the tender skin are eaten. Therefore, the hostesses do not wait for the moment when the zucchini becomes an adult, its skin will coarse, and the inside will be filled with seeds.

But an adult zucchini is also tasty and good for food. In this case, you need to cut off the tough peel, cut the fruit in half and remove the seeds from it with a part of the pulp. Then cut the zucchini into random pieces and use for cooking various dishes.

Most often, zucchini is cooked along with other vegetables that have a rich taste. But they are good on their own, especially if you add spicy herbs, garlic or pepper to them.

Pan-fried zucchini: the subtleties of cooking

• Most often, zucchini is cut into slices. Such slices, fried in oil, serve as the basis for small vegetable canapes; cold snacks are made of them with the addition of tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and cheese.
• There is not very much juice in the zucchini, but so that they are well fried, and a golden crust forms on their surface, it is recommended to roll them in flour, having previously salted to taste.
• Zucchini is usually salted just before frying. But if you decide to salt them in advance, do not overdo it with this spice: zucchini strongly absorb salt and may end up being oversalted. When the zucchini has developed juice, drain it, and be sure to blot the slices with a paper towel.
• Place them in a well-heated skillet with enough oil and start frying over high heat. When the underside of the zucchini is golden brown, reduce the heat to medium. If the zucchini are fried over low heat, they will slowly cook, but the oil will be actively absorbed into them. And the zucchini will end up being very fatty.
• Zucchini go well with tomatoes, mushrooms, onions. If you decide to cook a vegetable platter, heat all vegetables separately and only then combine them.
• Zucchini, like eggplant, is good in batter. You can make absolutely any dough. The main thing is that it should be similar in consistency to sour cream of medium density. Such dough adheres well to the slices, does not drain from them, and during frying completely covers the zucchini with a beautiful ruddy crust.
• Fry the zucchini in a skillet without covering it with a lid. To get rid of excess fat, place the fried zucchini on a paper towel for a few minutes and then transfer to a dish or plate.
• Zucchini is combined with sour cream, mayonnaise, béchamel sauce.
