• 1 cup flour 

• 1-2 eggs (i used 1.5)

Instructions

1. Wash and dry the zucchini and tomato.
2. Slice the zucchini into 1/3 inch pieces. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
3. Add flour to one bowl and crack the eggs into another separate bowl. Season both lightly and mix well.
4. Dredge each Zucchini piece into the flour first shaking off excess. Then dip into egg and back into flour. (This will help the zucchini be more crispy and prevent it from getting moist fast).

6. Add zucchini pieces one by one. Fry for 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
7. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Let them cool to room temperature.
