FRIED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Pour enough oil into a large frying pan to reach a depth of 2 inches. Heat the oil over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F.
• Stir 1 1/2 cups Parmesan, the panko, and salt in a medium bowl to blend. Whisk the eggs in another medium bowl to blend. Working in batches, dip the zucchini in the eggs to coat completely and allow the excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Coat the zucchini in the panko mixture, patting to adhere and coat completely. Place the zucchini strips on a baking sheet.
• When the oil is hot, working in batches, fry the zucchini sticks until they are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried zucchini to paper towels and drain.
• Arrange the fried zucchini on a platter. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and serve.

FRIED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Cut the zucchini into rounds: Place the zucchini on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to trim the ends off. Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds.
• Prepare the breading station: In a shallow bowl or pie pan, stir together the flour, salt, and black pepper. In a separate shallow bowl or pie pan, whisk the eggs until the yolks and whites are combined. In a third shallow bowl or pie pan, stir the Panko and Parmesan together. This will be your assembly line to bread the zucchini.
• Preheat the oven to 215°F. You can keep the fried zucchini warm in the oven as you fry them in batches. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet. You'll place the fried zucchini on it.

FRIED ZUCCHINI WITH TZATZIKI

Steps:

• First make the tzatziki. Place the cucumber in a colander. Drizzle over the vinegar and sprinkle with salt. Stand over a plate and leave to drain for 1 hour. Pat dry with kitchen paper or on a clean tea-towel.
• Mix the cucumber with the yogurt, garlic, mint and freshly ground pepper, then taste and add more salt if it needs it. Chill until required.
• Just before serving the tzatziki, fry the zucchini. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-based frying pan.
• Add the sliced zucchini and fry over brisk heat until golden-brown on both sides.
• Drain on kitchen paper, season with salt and serve at once with the tzatziki.

FRIED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of oil in a heavy pot such as a Dutch oven over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Whisk together panko and Parmesan in a pie plate; season with salt and pepper. Place flour and eggs in two separate pie plates, and season each with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Dredge zucchini in flour, tapping off excess. Dip into eggs, turning to coat, then remove, allowing excess to drip back into dish. Transfer to panko mixture, turning to coat, and pressing gently to adhere.
• Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, carefully lower zucchini into hot oil. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over and tender in the center, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes total. Allow oil to return to 350 degrees between batches. Remove and drain on prepared baking sheet. Season with salt. Serve with lemon wedges.
