1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 zucchini, quartered |
3/4 cup italian-style dry bread crumbs |
Directions:
1. In a heavy saucepan or deep fryer, preheat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

3. Slice the zucchini into pieces 2 to 3 inches long. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture, then coat them with the bread crumbs.
