  1. 5 stars! I loved this... the sauce is tangy and wonderful and a little spread on slices of Zucchini and eaten as an appitizer with the fingers is to be highly recommended. The dipped zucchini fried up quickly and easily and it dissapears just as fast. I used 1 large zucchini and found that one egg for dipping would have been enough as I had quite a lot left over. Next time I will start with one egg and add another if the egg mixture is getting low. Please see my rating system: an excellent 5 stars for a vegetable appitizer that wasn't hard to make and went down a treat. Thanks!
