I NEED MORE ZUCCHINI!!!!!

Oh my goodness!!! I just made the BEST thing EVER!!! After I tried them I called Mama cause I had to tell somebody about the best food I'd ever had!!! I took some to my neighbor, Marie and I told her to try them...she put the in the fridge...I didn't wanna seem psycho and scream "NO NOW!" After the first few bites I started scrambling through my fridge making sure I didn't have zucchini hidden somewhere...no such luck.

OK...here's the recipe:

You will need:

several zucchini's (I made the mistake of only using 2)
vegetable oil (big container of it)
sea salt and/or regular salt
pepper
and the Mandolin slicer (11.99 at bed, bath, and beyond)

First lets talk about this mandolin slicer...

I was a bit confused when I first pulled it all out. Its this thing (pictured above) and like 4 triagles, and a round handle looking thing. The 4 triagles are the different sized blades. I wasn't sure which one to use but I wanted the zucchini to be sliced very skinny so I used the smallest one. It pops into the empty triangle like so...

Then you just move the zucchini towards the blade and it cuts it for you.

I would quit when I got down to a small piece. Sure I wasted some of the veggie but I didn't wanna lose a finger. I had a huge pile of zucchini when I got done. I heated up oil in a pan. I let it go until it was boiling. And there were some weird sounds going on during this time. Sounded like bubbles popping (different than just boiling water).

Anyway, when it got REALLY hot I put the zucchini strips in. They cooked for probably about 10 min. They're almost ready!

When they got a little brown I took them out with a spatula and put them on a paper towel to drain. I sprinkled them with sea salt, regular salt, and pepper. YUM!!!! I had the first batch eaten by the time the second batch was done.

They reminded me of those shoestring potatoes you use to be able to get in a can. They were crunchy and salty and heavenly. And remember to get more than 2 zucchini...I'll probably get like 5 next time!
