About Fried courgette

Fried courgette, also known as fried zucchini, is a popular dish enjoyed in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. Typically made by slicing courgettes into thin rounds or strips and coating them in flour, breadcrumbs, or batter before frying, this dish delivers a satisfying crunch with a tender interior. The simplicity of its preparation highlights the natural, mild flavor of courgettes. Rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and dietary fiber, courgettes offer a range of health benefits, including supporting digestion and boosting immunity. However, frying the courgette adds calories and fat, depending on the type and amount of oil used. For a lighter option, air-frying or pan-searing can reduce excess oil while preserving its delicious texture. Fried courgette is often served as a side dish, appetizer, or snack, complemented by dips like tzatziki or marinara sauce for added flavor.
