Como fazer Fried Zucchini With Tzatziki

**Make the Tzatziki:** Combine 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup grated cucumber (see step 2 for preparation), 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Season generously with salt (about 1/2 teaspoon or to taste) and mix well.
**Prepare the Cucumber:** Grate 1 medium cucumber and place it in a fine-mesh sieve. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Let it sit for 1 hour to drain excess moisture.
**Pat Dry:** After an hour, thoroughly press the cucumber to remove as much liquid as possible. Use paper towels or a clean kitchen towel.
**Chill the Tzatziki:** Once the cucumber is sufficiently dry, stir it into the yogurt mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
**Fry the Zucchini:** While the tzatziki chills, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
**Cook the Zucchini:** Add 2 medium zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds, to the hot skillet. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and tender.
**Drain and Season:** Remove the zucchini from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Season lightly with salt.
**Serve:** Serve the fried zucchini immediately with the chilled tzatziki. Garnish with extra fresh mint if desired.
