Step 1:
How to fry zucchini circles in a frying pan? Prepare the products. For such a dish, very young zucchini with a thin skin are best suited. Large and old fruits will turn out to be tough, it is better to use them for other recipes.
Step 2:
Wash and dry the squash. Since the squash is very young, it does not need to cut the skin and remove the seeds. Cut it into 1 cm wide circles.
Step 3:
Salt the circles on both sides.
Step 4:
Roll the circles in flour, shake off the excess so that it does not burn and does not spoil the look of the finished dish. It is more convenient to prepare zucchini blanks all at once, stacking them in piles.
Step 5:
Preheat a frying pan over medium heat. Pour enough vegetable oil so that the bottom is completely hidden by a thin layer. Carefully, so as not to get burned with hot oil, put the circles of zucchini in the pan. Fry them on each side until light golden brown. Leave a space between the circles of zucchini so that they fry quickly and evenly.
Step 6:
Remove the finished slices immediately to a serving dish. While they are hot, sprinkle them with finely chopped garlic and dill. Separately serve the sour cream sauce: add chopped garlic and dill to the sour cream, add salt to taste and mix. Similarly, fry the next portion of zucchini, be sure to pour oil into the pan, since zucchini strongly absorb it when frying.

Zucchini is ideal for this dish, or you need to take very young zucchini with a soft peel and tender flesh.

There are few calories in zucchini, which makes this vegetable attractive to those who follow the figure. It should be borne in mind that when frying in oil, the calorie content of the dish increases, since zucchini strongly absorb oil.

And of course zucchini, like many other products, lose some of their useful properties during heat treatment.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.

To check whether the oil has warmed up well enough in the pan, you can do it in a simple way. Lower a wooden spatula into it. If bubbles have gathered around it, then you can start the frying process.

Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).
