Method

1. Step 1

   Summer is the season for fresh vegetables! This is the best time to get your fill of vitamins and prepare incredibly tasty dishes from healthy ingredients.

   
2. Step 2

   It doesn’t take us much time to prepare the courgette appetizer. Wash the courgette and cut into slices about 7 - 8 mm thick. Sprinkle with salt and let them brew for 10 minutes.

   
3. Step 3

   When the courgette is saturated with salt, mix them, drain off any excess liquid, if any, and start frying. Dip each circle in flour on both sides and place in a heated frying pan.

   
4. Step 4

   Fry until golden brown on both sides. Place fried courgette on paper towels to remove excess fat.

   
5. Step 5

   While the courgette is cooling, prepare mayonnaise - squeeze 2 cloves of garlic into it and mix. If desired, you can add chopped dill - it will complement the taste. Cut the tomatoes into thin slices. You need to take small tomatoes - about the same diameter as courgette.

   
6. Step 6

   We form a “cake”: grease a circle of courgette with mayonnaise and garlic, put a slice of tomato on top, grease with mayonnaise, cover with a second circle of courgette, put a teaspoon of cream cheese on top and decorate with a parsley leaf.
