Zucchini with egg and cheese is a simple yet surprisingly delicious dish of Russian cuisine, combining the tender texture of zucchini with a crispy crust and rich creamy flavor of cheese. This recipe originates from home cooking traditions where vegetables were prepared to highlight their natural juiciness. A light flour coating with egg gives the zucchini tenderness, while the golden crust after frying adds an appetizing aroma. The finishing touch is a hint of honey that provides an interesting blend of sweetness and saltiness to the dish. Zucchini with cheese and honey is a great option for a light dinner or snack that will pleasantly surprise with its balance of flavors.
