Crispy Fried Zucchini with Garlic Dill Sauce

Slice the zucchini into rounds about ¼ inch thick.

Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Pat dry.

Prepare the Coating:

In a bowl, whisk eggs with mayonnaise until smooth.

Place flour in a separate dish.

In another dish, mix breadcrumbs with paprika.

Coat the Zucchini:

Dredge each zucchini slice in flour, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

Fry the Zucchini:

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Fry the zucchini slices for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Make the Garlic Dill Sauce:

In a bowl, mix minced garlic, vegetable oil, water, and chopped fresh dill.

Stir well and let sit for a few minutes to develop flavor.

Serve:

Drizzle the garlic dill sauce over the fried zucchini or serve as a dip on the side.
