This is a traditional recipe in my family, as well as in pretty much any Ukrainian family fried zucchini with tomato and mayo-dill sauce. It’s resembles a lot the eggplant recipe, but, zucchini, as a base component gives it a different twist. For the recipe you’ll need
1 midsized zucchini
1-2 tomatoes
2-3 tablespoons mayo
½ cup of finely chopped dill
1 clove of garlic (optional)
1 egg
2 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of water
1 pinch of salt
1 pinch of black pepper
5 tablespoons cooking oil
Wash zucchini, cut it in full round slices (they shouldn’t be thick- about ¼ inches) and rub in salt and pepper, let it stand for 5 minutes. Take an egg, mix it
with some water and pour the flour on a separate dish. Set a frying pan on medium gas and add some cooking oil, then: cover zucchini slice in flour then put it in egg-water mixture and put frying. Repeat with all the slices. Fry zucchini from both sides until soft inside and has golden brown crust.
Meanwhile: wash your tomato, dill. Cut tomato in slices or half round slices (depending on how big the tomato is). Mix mayo with finely chopped dill and add a little bit of salt.( you may add pressed garlic to the sauce, if you wish). Put the fried zucchini on the plate, cover it with mayo dill sauce and put the tomato slice on top. Repeat with all the zucchini slices. You may put zucchini in layers , as I did.
The dish should be served warm and may be served cold; is good with mashed potato and meat, or with salad, also the dish is very good when cold; in sandwiches.
Enjoy!

I guess we both have zucchini on the brain! I just put up a zucchini recipe on my blog also. This sounds delicious! I’m going to try this when I get another zucchini from the garden
That dill sauce sounds amazing! I need to try this ASAP
This looks mighty yummy! I am convinced that my zucchini plants hate me and I need to buy some from the produce market!
Helen – this look fabulous! I love zucchini, may, dill, tomato….all of it!
We haven’t made these in a long time, yours look fantastic! I want to try your dill sauce for sure!
I just picked a medium sized zucchini from my garden. Now I have an idea of what to make with it. Perfect timing.
I’ve been wanting to try fried zuchinni! Yum!!
Hi Helen,
Thanks for friending me on Foodbuzz. This recipe sounds delicious and perfect for a summer afternoon. As per your request I have added here my favorite recipe so far for August, my Three Cheese Zucchini and Spinach Lasagna with a Bechamel Sauce… to die for.

Helen, Your timing with this post is perfect because my zucchini plants are producing in overdrive! Thank you for sharing the spot on recipe.
Yup, zucchinis are overproducers. But I just <3 <3 them!
Fried zucchini looks great and that dipping sauce takes it to the next level. Thanks for sharing!
