Details

• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 15 minutes
• Total Time: 25 minutes
• Servings: 2

Ingredients

• 4 medium zucchinis
• 15 g unsalted butter (melted; or substitute with olive oil)
• Sea salt (to taste)
• Black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Zucchini Noodles:

• Use a spiralizer to make zucchini noodles. Cut off the ends of the zucchini, attach one end to the handle, and the other to the blade. Crank the handle to create zoodles.
• Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Oven Cooking Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 177°C (350°F). Grease a large baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
2. Spread the zucchini noodles in a thin, even layer. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and toss.
3. Bake for 15 minutes, or until al dente tender. For softer zoodles, cook a bit longer.
4. Pat dry with a double layer of paper towels.
5. Toss with melted butter or olive oil, black pepper, and more sea salt if needed.

Stovetop Cooking Method:

1. Place zucchini noodles in a colander over the sink. Sprinkle with sea salt and toss. Let them drain for 20-30 minutes.
2. Gently squeeze the zoodles over the sink to remove water. Rinse off excess salt and pat dry.
3. Heat butter or olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add zoodles and stir fry for 3-4 minutes until al dente tender.
4. Season with black pepper and additional sea salt if needed.
