Sauced zucchinis Carpione

March 30, 2011
Zucchini

Ingredients

zucchinis
1kg
garlic
4 cloves
sage
5 leaves
mint
5 leaves
extra virgin olive oil
150ml
white vinegar
100ml
salt
to taste

Procedure

Wash the zucchini and cut into strips; fry them in a pan with olive oil. Pass them on absorbent paper and salt them lightly.

Place them in a bowl. Now prepare the “carpione” (the italian name for this preparation).

Pour the olive oil into a saucepan, add a pinch of salt, sage and mint leaves and crushed garlic cloves; then bring to a boil and let the garlic fry briefly, until golden brown.

At this point add the vinegar and let it all simmer for a few seconds.

Pour the hot sauce on the zucchini and let it rest.

Serve the “carpione” cold: the aromas of sage and mint make the dish pleasing.
