Zucchini Fries

Ingredients:

1 medium zucchini

1 tsp. salt, plus more for final seasoning

¼ tsp. freshly cracked pepper

3 ½ Tbsp. almond meal or flour

1 cup EVOO

Directions:

Use julienne peeler to cut zucchini into "noodles". Sprinkle salt and pepper on the zucchini strips and toss to evenly coat. Place seasoned zucchini strips in a strainer and allow to sit about 25 minutes. Dry off zucchini as best you can.

Placed zucchini in a medium bowl and sprinkle with flour – toss to evenly coat with flour. If there are large clumps of tangled zucchini strips, carefully untangle by pulling apart. Shake out excess flour and set zucchini aside.

In a heavy-bottom saucepan or wok, heat olive oil over med high heat until it’s relatively hot but not smoking. In batches (about 2) dropped zucchini in oil and cook until the zucchini is a rich yellow, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.

Place zucchini fries on paper towel to drain. Salt to taste.
