Oil‑free zucchini cooking trend

Entities: France · Spain · Kim (Korean resident in Barcelona) · Airfryer · Czech Republic

Overview

In late July, a simple air‑fryer method for turning sliced zucchini into crisp, oil‑free chips was highlighted, emphasizing speed, low calories and appeal to health‑conscious home cooks in Spain and France. Within a week, a related oil‑free technique spread to Central Europe, where a Korean resident in Barcelona shared a pan‑fried zucchini recipe that quickly gained popularity in Czech kitchens. This version uses a skillet, garlic and red pepper, drawing on the Korean bok bokkeum side‑dish and avoiding oil, flour or breadcrumbs. Together the snapshots illustrate a growing European interest in quick, oil‑free zucchini preparations, with different cooking appliances and cross‑cultural influences driving the trend.
