The season of bounty is officially here.
Zucchini or courgette (bostanel) is a wonderful summer squash which can be prepared in matter of minutes. Being very tender and delicate, it it requires minimal thermal treatment. In fact, these battered zucchini fries are crisp from outside and delightfully crunchy on the inside, since the hot oil crusts the batter and barely affects the inside texture, if not let for too long to brown.

My batter is a simple one: yoghurt, flour, salt, paprika and a tad of turmeric. Crunch crunch. I had to protest them kids grabbing the whole plate and go away with it: hey, I am writing a blog!!!
