Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Wash the zucchini and slice on the diagonal.
  2. Heat the butter or oil in a pan (use a ridged pan if you have it) and heat on high. Fry the zucchini slices in batches so they lie flat. Do not cook them, just sear them on both sides, then remove from pan to a bowl.
  3. Add the nuts, turn heat down, and shake them until hot. They burn easily: just heat them well. Add to the zucchini, and let it cool. (I also added the nice browned butter which was left in the pan).
  4. Sprinkle over the balsamic vinegar, nut oil and Tabasco Chipotle if using, and toss lightly. Season with flaky sea salt, tossing to mix. This way the zucchini absorbs a little of the extra flavours.
  5. Arrange salad leaves of your choice on a large plate.
  6. Toss the zucchini-nut mixture with the vinaigrette dressing, and arrange on the salad leaves.
  7. Add the Parmesan shavings to the salad, and serve.
  8. (If the salad has to stand awhile, cover with plastic wrap. The zucchini will become a little more limp, but the taste will be fine).
