Zucchini of various varieties, including squash, are fried in a similar way. But of the bright yellow or contrasting striped zucchini, the appetizer looks the most attractive. If you have a choice, I recommend them. The younger the vegetables, the better: more tender, with a thin shell and no tough seeds.
