Method
Prepare the Zucchini
- Slice the zucchini into thin rounds and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture.
- Dredge each zucchini slice in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.
- In a frying pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and fry the zucchini slices until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
Assemble the Dish
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Spread a layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
- Layer half of the fried zucchini slices over the sauce, followed by half of the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan cheese.
- Repeat the layers with the remaining zucchini, sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan.
- Sprinkle chopped basil on top.
Bake
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
