3 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini. Look for small to medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid zucchini that are too large, as they may be tough and seedy.
  • Slice the zucchini evenly. This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a mandoline, be sure to use the guard to protect your fingers.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan. When cooking the zucchini, be sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the zucchini will steam instead of fry and will not be as flavorful.
  • Cook the zucchini until it is tender. You should be able to easily pierce the zucchini with a fork when it is done.
  • Season the zucchini to taste. You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, or any other desired spices.
  • Serve the zucchini immediately. Zucchini is best served hot and fresh. You can garnish it with fresh dill or chives.

Conclusion:

Zucchini with sour cream and dill is a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up fresh zucchini from your garden, and it is also a healthy and affordable option. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying.
