A simple warm zucchini salad that’s bursting with flavours and textures. The zucchini slices are first charred grilled, then dressed in a lemon dill vinaigrette. Red currants offer a tart and sparkling flavour that works beautifully with mellow zucchini. Plus, they add a pop of bright, glossy red to the salad. If desired, add some toasted nuts or seeds for the crunch. Enjoy them as is, with some roasted chicken or steak, or serve over a bed of hummus or Greek yoghurt.

- Cut zucchini into 1.5 cm-thick slices and season both sides with salt. Place the salted zucchini slices on a tea towel in a single layer to drain for about 30 minutes. Blot dry the zucchini with paper towels.
- Heat some chicken schmaltz in a grill pan or frying pan and fry the zucchini slices, in batches, over a medium heat for 5 minutes each side until lightly charred and just tender. Transfer to a large platter.
- In the same pan, add olive oil, garlic cloves, and chilli. Fry gently over a medium heat for 2–3 minutes, until it smells fragrant. Remove and mix in lemon juice and chopped dill. Pour the dressing over the warm zucchini and garnish with red currants. Serve them over a bed of hummus or Greek yoghurt.

I love zucchini and this sounds good.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! We often eat zucchini baked this way with garlic, but without the peppers. Now I'll add your ingredients: currants and the rest.
ReplyDeleteAleż piękna sałatka. Takiej jeszcze nie robiłam. Idealna na kolację latem.
ReplyDeleteGorące uściski 🙂
You are really having fun with those yellow zucchinis this sommar!
ReplyDeleteIt’s beautiful and delicious.

Lovely salad, something different to do for zucchini
ReplyDeleteThe reason why my posts don't appear in your reader is probably because I already published many posts a few years ago but I didn't contact other bloggers so the texts were on the blog without comments, now that we have Google Translate I can read blogs of all bloggers around the world and write comments. You can also read my texts and comment. Since my texts have already been published now when I change the publication date in the editor the posts don't appear in the lists. I don't know how it works exactly but I think that's the main reason. Best regards, Jasna
ReplyDeleteI start baking potatoes with vegetables... delicious! I invite you to check out my profile where I added another blog, Photo showcase with my photos. Wishing you a nice day... Andreja!
ReplyDeleteThat's such a pretty salad and I'm sure it delicious!
ReplyDeleteHi Angie. It has been so long since I drop by here. Sorry for the absence, been super busy over here.
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful and colourful salad. I actually haven't tasted zucchini, wonder how it tasted like.
Brilliant! Great to see this dish! So inspiring 💛
ReplyDeleteThe vinaigrette sounds amazing with this! YUM! ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so good! Currants are not available here. Perhaps red grapes would work?
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! Thank you for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteEin toller, schmackhafter Sommersalat. Ich kann mir vorstellen, wie wir abends auf der Terrasse sitzen und den feinen Salat mit etwas Brot genießen.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful presentations, Angie!
ReplyDeleteSe ve muy rico. Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious combination . We h=just had a cold zucchini salad last evening but I love the idea of a warm one. No currants here so I will use pomegranates off the tree.
ReplyDeleteAfter last week’s zucchini fritters recipe (that I tried and enjoyed, by the way), I got quite a bit of zucchini. I’m going to try this recipe as well.
ReplyDeleteA very summery dish
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely salad
ReplyDeleteThat looks perfect summer's meal.
ReplyDeleteThe red currants offer such a beautiful pop of colour!
ReplyDeleteHello Angie,
ReplyDeleteThe salad looks delicious and pretty. Thanks for sharing.
Take care, enjoy your day and happy weekend.
Beautiful! I guess your fresh currants grow locally?
ReplyDeleteThat certainly does look good and another way to use zucchini.
ReplyDeleteI have several zucchini from my garden in the fridge right now, so this is topical.
ReplyDeleteWonderful recipe. We have grown green ones, so I'll use those.
ReplyDeleteHello Angie :)

This happened last time I commented,! It just posted in the middle of my comment.

What a nice idea to use yellow zucchini, it makes this dish even more appealing!
ReplyDeleteLooks very appetizing Angie, I like the sound of a warm salad, especially with delicious ingredients. Thank you for another great weekend and wishing you a splendid weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious, and funnily enough we have some yellow zucchini's growing in the kitchen garden, and one is ready right now! Guess what we're eating today!!! LOL🍽️✨🎉 Thank you for sharing and making my Sunday meal utterly epic!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely salad, Angie! I love the addition of currants - they must add such a nice tart-sweet contrast.
ReplyDeleteIt's just so festive with the red currants :D
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful side dish to use up summer zucchini.
ReplyDeleteIch habe mir diesmal dieses Rezept herausgesucht. Im Garten sind die Zucchini reif und es gibt an den Sträuchern auch noch Johannisbeeren. Ein schönes, leichtes Sommergericht. Danke dafür.
