Notes
• Slice the zucchini evenly so the pieces cook at a similar rate.
• Pat the slices dry before seasoning and flouring. Coat them close to frying rather than leaving them to stand.
• Shake off excess flour so the coating stays light and loose flour does not collect in the pan.
• Fry in a single layer without overcrowding. Divide the stated oil between batches as directed.
• Drain the cooked slices in a single layer rather than piling them up.
• Prepare the garlic sauce before frying and add it just before serving. Dill or mint can be added to the sauce if desired.
