Chef Jordi Cruz shares non-fried zucchini cooking methods
Spanish chef Jordi Cruz, known for his restaurant ABaC, has shared a method for preparing flavorful zucchini without frying. His technique involves peeling the vegetable, cutting it into regular pieces, and cooking them in a dish with garlic slices and chicken broth to enhance the flavor.
Other culinary approaches to zucchini focus on achieving a crispy texture without deep-frying. One method suggests removing excess moisture by salting the pieces and then coating them in a mixture of egg whites, coarse breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese before baking or air-frying. This results in a golden, light alternative to traditional fried preparations.
