How to fry squash. Fried zucchini. Zucchini fried in tomatoes

Good day, dear readers of my notes.

I was shopping for groceries the other day and couldn’t help but notice that prices for seasonal vegetables had plummeted. And this fall came to one of my favorite vegetables - zucchini.

Seeing this, my imagination immediately ran wild, because you can create so many interesting and tasty things from them! Last year I wrote about, about and the most wonderful.

But this is just a drop in the ocean. Therefore, I decided not only to make several collections dedicated to different methods of preparing the vegetable I love so much, but also to highlight them in a separate section, so as not to spend a long time searching for the required recipe.

Today I'll start with a general topic: cooking zucchini in a skillet. There will also be regular frying and stewing and other methods that you can use if you have a frying pan.

And in the following articles I will analyze each method in more depth, so that you always have a suitable option at hand for all occasions.

In general, today I just want to surprise you with a variety of choices and lure anonymous zucchini-eating lovers into my circle.

How to cook zucchini in a frying pan quickly and tasty with garlic

The taste of fried zucchini depends not only on the skills of the housewife, but also on the freshness of the selected products. As for zucchini, ideally you need to take the so-called “milk” ones, that is, young and fresh, with thin skin and seeds just beginning to form.

Let's start with one of my favorite options. It makes the vegetables very juicy, and the taste is not interrupted by other ingredients. Just garlic for flavor, flour for light breading and sour cream (optional) to enhance the taste.

For preparation you will need:

Zucchini - 3 pcs.
Garlic - 5-8 cloves
Salt, pepper - to taste
Sour cream (10-15%) – 250 g

Preparation:

1. Wash the vegetables, trim them on both sides and cut them into rings about 1 cm thick.

2. In a deep plate, mix flour and salt. In this case, usually take 1 teaspoon of salt for 1 cup (200 ml) of flour. And in this mixture we roll the zucchini on both sides.

You can use any flour, in this example it is whole grain.

3. And fry in a heated frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil. Fry under a closed lid on both sides for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

There is a lot of zucchini, so you will need to fry it in several batches so that the vegetables do not touch each other in the pan.

4. When all the rings are ready, turn off the heat, put them all in a frying pan, add sour cream and pressed garlic.

5. Then turn on the lowest heat, pour water into the frying pan so that it lightly covers the first layer of zucchini, stir gently, close the lid and leave to simmer for 15 minutes.

6. And you're done. Bon appetit!

A couple of tablespoons of mayonnaise
A couple of cloves of garlic
Salt to taste

Preparation:

1. Cut the zucchini into rings 5-7 mm thick, roll in flour and fry over medium heat on both sides for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.

After this, blot the rings with a paper towel to remove excess fat.

2. Prepare the sauce by mixing mayonnaise, garlic, passed through a garlic press and a pinch of salt in one bowl.

3. Well, now all that remains is to grease each ring with mayonnaise and the excellent snack is ready.

This dish is best served chilled.

Bon appetit!

Recipe for pan-fried zucchini with cheese and garlic

You don't have to cook all the zucchini the same way. Sometimes adding just one ingredient completely changes the taste of the finished dish. Such an ingredient could be, for example, cheese.

To prepare such a snack, you need to cut and fry the zucchini rings in the same way as in the previous recipe, after rolling them in flour.

Then pat them dry with a paper towel and sprinkle grated cheese on the still warm rings.

The amount of cheese is chosen independently, depending on the preference for the degree of “cheesiness”.

And when the cheese melts, you need to put a teaspoon of sauce made from sour cream, garlic and salt on top.

The traditional proportion for such sauces is 1 grated clove of garlic to 2 tablespoons of sour cream and salt on the tip of a knife.

And you're done.

Bon appetit!

The easiest and fastest way to prepare a lean zucchini snack

Well, before we move on to slightly more complex recipes, let's look at how to fry maximally lean zucchini without anything. Only a small amount of vegetable oil for frying.

And it's very easy to do. You only need:

1. Wash and cut the vegetables into thin rings (thickness no more than 5 mm).

The thinner the slices, the faster they will fry and the less oil they will absorb.

2. Place them in a heated frying pan with vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry on one side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

3. Turn the zucchini over, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid and simmer for 5-6 minutes.

Be careful that oil will splash out when you open the lid.

And you're done.

Place the rings on a paper towel and let the oil drain. Then you can add salt and pepper so that the vegetables don’t seem completely tasteless.

I must warn you that this option will appeal only to those who are on a diet and eat only boiled and steamed food for a long time.

Video on how to fry zucchini in egg and flour batter

The next two recipes will focus on batter frying. It can be prepared in different ways, and this video shows the simplest one, in which you just need to roll the zucchini in flour and egg.

Step-by-step photo recipe for making fluffy kefir batter

A slightly more complex method involves using kefir (or yogurt), which makes the batter fluffy. Many people like it.

Ingredients:

Young zucchini - 2-3 pieces
Garlic - 2-3 cloves
Salt pepper

For the batter:

Kefir or yogurt - 100 g
Eggs - 1-2 pcs
Flour - 3-4 tbsp

For the sauce:

Sour cream
Greenery
Garlic
Salt pepper

Preparation:

1. Wash the zucchini, cut off the ends, first cut in half crosswise, and then cut each half lengthwise to make 4-5 plates half a centimeter thick. Lightly salt and pepper the plates, rub with garlic passed through a press and set aside for 10-15 minutes.

2. Prepare the batter by whisking kefir, eggs and flour in one deep bowl.

The amount of flour can depend on many factors, even the degree of moisture. Therefore, add it little by little, focusing on the fact that the mixture should have the consistency of liquid sour cream.

3. When the batter is ready, take the zucchini, roll them in flour, then in the batter and place them in a heated frying pan with vegetable oil. Set the heat to medium or slightly less.

4. Fry the zucchini on both sides until golden brown. This will take 4-5 minutes.

The first finished piece needs to be cut and checked for readiness. If the zucchini is damp, then you need to continue frying with the lid closed. This will allow the vegetables to fry and the batter not to burn.

5. Fry all the plates and place them in a plate on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

At the same time, you can quickly prepare a sauce that will go perfectly with this dish. To do this, just mix sour cream with garlic squeezed through a press, a pinch of salt and finely chopped herbs.

Now everything is ready. This dish can be served either cold or hot. And so and so very tasty.

A simple option for frying zucchini in a frying pan - grill without garlic

This method is designed to satisfy the needs of two groups of people at once: those who do not like garlic and those who monitor the amount of calories they consume.

Yes, a grill pan allows you to fry food without any vegetable oil at all. But I’m not interested in writing about regular frying in such a frying pan; there’s nothing interesting about it. I’d rather show you an interesting version of an Italian-style vegetable appetizer.

We need very simple starting products: zucchini, olive oil (ideally unrefined), salt, pepper and rosemary.

The most important thing here is to cut the zucchini into as thin slices as possible. To do this, you can use a special vegetable cutter.

Preparation:

1. Place the zucchini cut into thin slices on a heated grill pan and fry over medium heat for literally 1-2 minutes until the flesh is slightly transparent.

2. Place the first batch of 4-5 pieces in a deep bowl, lightly add salt and pepper on top, add a pinch of rosemary and sprinkle with olive oil.

When the next batch is ready, repeat the procedure with a second layer. And so on until the vegetables run out.

That's all. Very simple. This appetizer is served while still warm and can easily replace a side dish, turning an ordinary lunch into a dietary one.

Dietary grilled zucchini salad with lemon and mint

Generally speaking about dietary food, you need to understand that side dishes and salads made from vegetables will always be much healthier than pasta or, not surprisingly, rice.

Therefore, here is another cool recipe for a warm salad that takes care of your figure and health.

To prepare one serving, just half a young zucchini, a pinch of salt, the juice of a quarter of a lemon and a couple of fresh mint leaves are enough.

Preparation:

1. Cut the skin off the zucchini and cut it into thin slices using a potato peeler. In this case, we do not need the core in which the seeds are located. We throw it away.

2. Heat the frying pan and add literally a teaspoon of vegetable oil to it.

It is needed to give the zucchini shine and flavor.

Then put the plates in the frying pan and fry them over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the white flesh becomes translucent.

3. Place the prepared vegetables on a plate, sprinkle with lemon juice, throw mint leaves on top and add a little salt.

Mint must be torn so that it releases its oils and aroma.

That's all. Ready. Bon appetit!

Stewed zucchini with vegetables in a frying pan

And again a recipe for losing weight. An excellent dish for both lunch and dinner. It’s also a great side dish for those who are learning to reduce their daily calorie intake.

Ingredients:

Young zucchini - 2 pieces
1 onion
1 medium sized carrot
Tomatoes - 5-6 small or 3 large
Salt, pepper, vegetable oil

Preparation:

1. Peel the onions and carrots and chop them finely. Cut the tomatoes into slices of arbitrary size.

2. Peel the zucchini, cut it in half lengthwise (like a boat) and remove the core and seeds with a spoon. Then cut them into small cubes.

3. Fry the onions and carrots over medium heat with a small amount of vegetable oil until the onions are soft and translucent.

4. Then add zucchini and tomatoes to them. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally

5. Everyone determines the degree of readiness for themselves. It’s the same with potatoes: some people like half-broken fried potatoes, others think that this is too much.

Same with stewed zucchini. It may be a little harsh, but at the same time it is already ready, or it may boil slightly and turn into semi-puree. Personally, I like the second option.

Whatever option you choose, when the zucchini has reached the desired condition, you need to salt and pepper them, mix well and leave under the lid to simmer for a couple more minutes.

And you're done. Bon appetit!

A quick and tasty recipe for cooking zucchini with minced meat

Well, in the end I left you with the most thorough recipe. With meat. More precisely with minced meat. A great alternative to stuffed peppers.

Now you agree with me that zucchini is a truly versatile vegetable from which you can prepare a bunch of completely different dishes.

But, as I said at the beginning, this is just an introductory article, it will be even more interesting later.

That's all for today, thank you for your attention.

Hello, my dear entertaining chefs! This spring I really fell in love with zucchini. In the sense of dishes prepared from them :) Today I picked up some zucchini at the store again. That’s why today we will cook them. I'll tell you how to fry zucchini in a frying pan and share tried and tested recipes.

By the way, friends, did you know that zucchini is a bush form of pumpkin? To be honest, this was a real discovery for me. And I thought that they were closer to cucumbers :) Zucchini came to us from Mexico. This is where they were prepared 3000 years ago. But in Europe they appeared only in the 16th century. Here's a little excursion.

Zucchini has low energy value: only 24 kcal per 100 g of product. There are 0.6 g of protein, 4.6 g of carbohydrates and only 0.3 g of fat.

How to choose zucchini

This vegetable crop is perhaps the only one that is best consumed unripe. Choose zucchini up to 20 cm long and weighing no more than 200 grams. Their skin should be smooth, thin, without dents or other defects.

Overripe vegetables have a thick skin and a lot of seeds inside. And their flesh is fibrous (it’s not very tasty). I recommend storing this product unwashed. At home, I take them out of the bag and place them in the refrigerator, because... in the bag they give off perspiration and spoil faster. The recommended storage period is about a week.

How long to fry zucchini

Fry young zucchini and sliced vegetables on each side for 1-2 minutes over medium heat. The time, of course, also depends on the thickness of the circles. Do not cover the vessel with a lid. It is better to roll the circles in flour first. And be sure to salt the vegetables before heat treatment.

Four original recipes

I have prepared simple, but at the same time original recipes for dishes with fresh zucchini. For greater clarity, a photo with a video lesson is also attached.

How to fry zucchini with garlic in a frying pan

We wash the vegetables, cut them into slices, add salt and leave for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce with garlic and mayonnaise. Grind the garlic cloves using a garlic press and mix with mayonnaise. Add chopped herbs and spices to the sauce to your taste.

After 10 minutes, when the vegetable gives juice, drain off the excess liquid. Then dip each circle into a container with flour and place it in heated oil in a frying pan.

After frying, place each round on a paper towel first. Then transfer to a large plate and brush each slice with garlic mayonnaise sauce. Please note that this dish tastes better when it sits for a while and soaks in the sauce. It is not as tasty hot as it is slightly chilled.

By the way, I also found an original version with garlic and mayonnaise - watch the video:

Dip each piece in batter and place in a frying pan. First you need to pour a little vegetable oil and heat it well. Fry on both sides until golden brown.

Roasting zucchini Venetian style

To prepare this exotic dish, stock up on:

1 zucchini;
a couple of tbsp. raisins (preferably seedless);
3 sprigs of mint;
3 tbsp. vegetable oil;
1 tbsp. wine vinegar;
2 cloves of garlic;
½ tsp. any sugar (brown or white);
1 tbsp. peeled pine nuts;
salt + freshly ground black pepper.

First we prepare the marinade. Set half the mint leaves aside to garnish the finished dish. But chop the second half of the leaves with a knife and mix them with raisins.

Peel 1 garlic and finely chop the clove with a knife. Add it to the mint-raisin mixture. Lightly pepper this mixture. Then add a spoonful of wine vinegar and sugar. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and leave the mixture for half an hour to infuse.

Cut the vegetables into slices 5-6 mm thick. I don't recommend cutting it any thicker. In a frying pan in hot oil, fry the remaining flattened garlic clove. Then remove it. And in the flavored oil, start frying the zucchini slices.

Place the finished circles on a paper towel. We don’t need extra fat; we have enough of our own 😉 Afterwards, add a little salt to the vegetables. Then transfer the zucchini to a plate, pour over the marinade and stir. Do this very carefully, as fried zucchini is tender and may fall apart.

After this whole procedure, leave the zucchini for an hour. Then place them on a plate, sprinkle with pine nuts and garnish with the remaining fresh mint leaves.

During this time, you need to hard-boil the egg, then remove the bowl with the egg from the heat and pick up the zucchini again. We put a frying pan on the fire, pour oil into it, and then put the circles here. And fry the vegetable rounds. Place the finished product on a plate and let it cool.

Now let's prepare the sauce with spices and tomatoes. We peel the tomatoes, scald them with boiling water and chop them finely. Then add mustard here, 1 tbsp. vegetable oil, salt and sugar with pepper. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.

How to fry zucchini

There is nothing complicated about this dish. Before you fry the zucchini , Check out the photos of the snacks below. To ensure that the food you prepare is just as beautiful and delicious, listen to these helpful tips. The success of culinary experiments depends on:

fruit ripeness;
oil quality;
frying time;
sauces and spices.

How long to fry

For frying, choose young fruits in which seeds have not yet formed. At the beginning of summer there is no problem with this: zucchini forms on the bushes quickly, there are many of them, and they are cheap. Later, like all pumpkin crops, they become overripe and, although they remain edible, are not very suitable for this method of preparation. At this time, zucchini, squash, crooknecks, which are the closest relatives of squash and have almost the same taste, can become a valuable find. The pulp of these vegetables remains tender longer, suitable for frying.

How long to fry zucchini in a frying pan depends on the age of the fetus:

Very tender zucchini with thin skin and barely noticeable seed buds are quickly fried on both sides, 2-3 minutes on each side.
Overgrown zucchini, freed from seeds, will have to be fried longer: up to 10-12 minutes.
A golden crust can be an indicator of the readiness of the dish only if the zucchini is cut into thin slices, no thicker than 0.7 cm.

Fried zucchini recipe

Since the pan, oil and zucchini slices are always the same, delicious fried zucchini recipes are determined by additives, batters, and sauces. Traditionally, sour cream dressing, mayonnaise, hard or processed cheese, and soy sauce are used to prepare such treats. To fry, zucchini slices (circles) are rolled in flour or dipped in an egg-flour mixture (batter). Zucchini goes well with any other vegetables, meat, eggs. Don’t be afraid to supplement selected recipes with ingredients at your discretion - this is how culinary masterpieces are born.
