Zucchini with egg in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry zucchini with eggs in a frying pan? Prepare your food. It is better to use young zucchini for this dish; they have a delicate skin and do not yet have a formed core with seeds. Wash the zucchini, cut off the ends on both sides. Cut the zucchini into circles no more than 0.5 centimeters thick. If the vegetables are large, then it is better to cut the circles into two or more parts to make it more convenient to place them in the pan.

2. STEP 2

   

   Beat a chicken egg into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and a pinch of ground black pepper. If you wish, you can add any other seasoning, spices and grated garlic if you like the spicy and spicy taste. Using a fork or hand whisk, beat the egg until the whites are completely dispersed and the mixture has a homogeneous consistency. Pour wheat flour into a flat plate.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan for frying. It needs to be poured so much so that pieces of zucchini up to half the height are in oil, fried well and do not start to burn, since the flour in the frying pan in the absence of oil will quickly start to burn and spoil the taste of the finished dish. Dip each piece of zucchini in the egg mixture so that he was completely covered in it.

4. STEP 4

   

   Then place the zucchini in a plate with flour and roll it on all sides.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place zucchini in egg and flour batter into heated oil in a frying pan. Fry each batch of zucchini pieces over medium heat until golden brown, then flip and fry the other side as well.

6. STEP 6

   

   To make the zucchini soft and juicy inside, cover the frying pan with a lid and keep on the fire for a few more minutes. Then remove the cover. But it’s better not to do this, otherwise the crispy crust on the zucchini may become soft. Therefore, it is better to cut the zucchini pieces into thin slices. Remove the finished zucchini to a plate with a paper towel - it will absorb excess fat.

7. STEP 7

   

   The dish is ready. Serve egg-fried zucchini with sauce, mayonnaise or sour cream, fresh vegetables and bread. Bon appetit!

I cooked zucchini with eggs in a frying pan for breakfast. I used young zucchini, with thin skin and without seeds. As for spices, in addition to salt and pepper, I added a little paprika. I took the egg category C1. I fried the zucchini rings for about 1 minute on each side. The zucchini turned out very aromatic, appetizing and crispy. Breakfast was excellent. These zucchini are a great way to start the day: they turn out very tasty, and at the same time they take very little time to prepare. Thank you very much for the recipe!

My family really appreciated the recipe for Zucchini with eggs in a frying pan. The most important thing is not to overdo it with oil, since vegetables absorb a lot of it, so I fried it over low heat with a small amount of fat. It turned out very tasty, thanks for the recipe!
