We recommend using Organic Zucchini. ALSO: you can follow these same instructions to fry other Vegetables, such as Okra, Cauliflower, or Mushrooms. We recommend using a Deep Fryer to Fry the Zucchini. It makes the whole process much easier and keeps the Oil at a more even temperature rather than a skillet. The Fryer also allows the Zucchini to fry on all sides at the same time, making frying more even, and quicker.
