Vegetarian cutlets from zucchini
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Serve vegetarian zucchini cutlets hot with your favorite sauces; sour cream or tomato sauce (based on fresh tomatoes, peppers, and spices) works great. The cooking process is extremely simple, and the result... you have to try it yourself! I really enjoyed it. Good luck! Serve hot.
