1. Prepare the Zucchini
- Wash the zucchinis thoroughly.
- Slice them into medium-thick rounds (not too thin, so they hold the filling).
- Pair the slices so they match in size, since they’ll be used like little “sandwiches.”
2. Add the Filling
- Place a small spoonful of grated cheese between two slices of zucchini.
- Press gently to make a zucchini “sandwich.”
3. Coat and Fry
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Dip each zucchini sandwich into the egg mixture (and breadcrumbs if you want extra crunch).
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Fry each piece until golden brown on both sides and the cheese inside is melted.
4. Serve Hot
- Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Serve warm, while the cheese is still gooey and irresistible.
