Fried Pickled Zucchini Ingredients

Method

Fried Pickled Zucchini Directions

1

Pickle the Zucchini

In a bowl, dissolve pickling salt in water. Add sliced zucchini and let soak for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.

2

Prepare the Pickling Liquid

In a saucepan, combine white vinegar, sugar, garlic cloves, and dill. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Pour over the drained zucchini and let it sit for at least 1 hour.

3

Batter Preparation

In a bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, egg, and milk until smooth. Let sit for 10 minutes.

4

Fry the Zucchini

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Remove pickled zucchini from the liquid, dip in the batter, and carefully place in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes each side. Drain on paper towels.

5

Serve

Serve hot as an appetizer or side dish.
