Difficulty: easy Prep Time: Five Minutes Total Time: 30 Minutes or Less

2 zucchini, washed and sliced in 1/4" thick slices
1 cup flour
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp onion powder
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups fine breadcrumbs
Olive oil, for frying

Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tbsp Sriracha (or your favourite
hot sauce)

Mix together dipping sauce ingredients and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meantime, set up three bowls for your breading station. In the first bowl, sift together flour and spices; in the second, whisk together eggs and milk; and in the third, place the breadcrumbs. Give zucchini slices a quick rinse and thoroughly shake off the excess water. First, dredge them in the flour-spice mixture, shaking off the excess. Next, dip them in the egg wash and finally, coat them in breadcrumbs, shaking off excess. Just cover the bottom of a heavy-bottomed pan with olive oil and heat on medium-high. Fry zucchini slices on both sides until golden brown, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning. Drain on a paper towel and serve with dipping sauce. Yield: Approx. 4 servings
