Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Greek
Ingredients: 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into rounds; 1 cup all-purpose flour; 2 eggs, beaten; 1 cup breadcrumbs; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; Salt and pepper to taste; Vegetable oil for frying; 1 cup Greek yogurt; 1/2 cucumber, grated and excess water squeezed out; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped; 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

Start by preparing the tzatziki sauce. In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, chopped dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate while you fry the zucchini.
In a shallow bowl, season the flour with salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Place the beaten eggs in another bowl, and the breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
Dip each zucchini slice into the seasoned flour, coating both sides evenly.
Next, dip the flour-coated zucchini into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
Finally, coat the zucchini in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the coated zucchini slices in the oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the zucchini slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. You may need to fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Once fried, place the zucchini slices on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Fried Zucchini hot with a generous dollop of the prepared tzatziki sauce on top for dipping.
Enjoy the crispy texture of the zucchini combined with the cooling and flavorful tzatziki sauce. This dish is best served fresh and is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
