Fried Zucchini Fingers With Tamarind Dipping Sauce, I came across this recipe while looking for things to make with Tamarind (available in Asian markets) and zucchini I haven’t made this recipe yet but i am planning on making it when zucchini is abundant Prep time incudes standing time (30 minutes) Recipe source: Saveur (April/May 2003), This made a yummy dipping sauce that I really enjoyed I did make a few changes though! The grocery store that sold tamarind quit selling it, so I substituted teriyaki sauce used about 1/3 cup sauce I also used regular white flour with no problem Thanks Ellie, this has been in my cookbook for awhile and I’m glad I picked it for Zaar tag!, I came across this recipe while looking for things to make with Tamarind (available in Asian markets) and zucchini I haven’t made this recipe yet but i am planning on making it when zucchini is abundant Prep time incudes standing time (30 minutes) Recipe source: Saveur (April/May 2003)
