We have these antipasti for grilling as standard. The zucchini taste super refreshing and can be prepared a day in advance.
You absolutely need a grill pan here. If you don`t have one, you can also prepare it in a normal pan, but the grill flavor will not be felt.
Wash the zucchini and cut off the ends. Then cut lengthways into thin slices (I`ll use a grater). Put the grill pan on the stove when it is hot, add a little olive oil and put the zucchini slices in and grill / fry until they are slightly glassy and have a pleasant grill pattern (I like it a little darker). This takes about 5 minutes on each side. Then place the zucchini in a square shape. When a layer is ready, sprinkle it with coarse sea salt and place a few mint leaves on top. Gradually grill the remaining zucchini slices and layer them in the form. At the end, place a few decorative mint leaves on top and sprinkle a good dash of fine olive oil over them.
Let cool down a bit, then cover with foil and put in the fridge overnight.
Take out of the refrigerator 1 hour before eating. The mint and grilling create a great fresh aroma.
Tip:
You can also put thin slices of garlic over the zucchini when layering it.
