Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Zucchini

    Wash the zucchini thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry. Slice the zucchini into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.

Batter Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually add water, whisking until the batter is smooth and thick.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, pour in vegetable oil and heat it over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 4

    Fry the Zucchini

    Dip each zucchini slice into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Carefully place the battered zucchini into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway.

  3. 5

    Drain and Cool

    Once fried, transfer the zucchini to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining zucchini slices.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle the fried zucchini with fresh parsley. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the zucchini.
