Take an egg, mix it with some water and pour the flour on a separate dish.

About
This is a traditional recipe in my family, as well as in pretty much any Ukrainian family fried zucchini with tomato and mayo-dill sauce. It’s resembles a lot the eggplant recipe http://helenscooking.info/2011/07/eggplant-rolls-with-tomatogarlic-and-herbs/ , but, zucchini, as a base component gives it a different twist.
