Equipment

  • Dehydrator or Oven
  • Mandoline Slicer or Knife
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 zucchinis
  • splash of olive oil
  • sea salt

Instructions

  • Prepare the Zucchini: Slice the zucchinis into thin strips using a mandoline slicer or a knife. The thinner the strips, the crunchier the fries will be.
  • Season: Toss the strips in a drop of olive oil and season with sea salt. Ensure all the strips are evenly coated.
  • Arrange on Trays: Lay the zucchini strips on a dehydrator sheet in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
  • Dehydrate: Set your dehydrator to about 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius) and dehydrate for 16 hours. Check regularly to ensure they are drying evenly.
  • Alternative Oven Method: If using an oven, set it to the lowest temperature and leave the oven door slightly open to allow moisture to escape. Check frequently until the zucchini strips are crispy.
