How to choose fresh and delicious zucchini
- You should prioritize choosing straight zucchinis with intact stems, fresh green color, and when held in hand, they feel firm and not soft or mushy.
- Additionally, you should choose zucchinis of moderate length and a moderately bright green color as these are usually the standard ones, not too young and not too old, and they will be very delicious when cooked.
- Avoid selecting zucchinis that show signs of scratches, insect bites, or that are wilted and no longer fresh.

Prepare the ingredients
For the zucchini, you can peel it or leave the skin on according to your preference. Use a knife to cut off both ends and slice it into pieces about 1/3 of a finger’s thickness, then cut into strips.
Peel the onion, rinse it clean, and slice it thinly. Remove the stem from the chili, rinse it clean, and then finely chop it.

Fry the zucchini pancakes
Place a pan on the stove over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, wait for the oil to heat up, then add 1 ladle of zucchini to fry for about 3 – 4 minutes until both sides are golden, then remove and let drain the oil, continue frying until done.
Tip: To prevent the zucchini pancakes from breaking, let one side turn golden before flipping to fry the other side!
