Cut 500g of zucchini into approximately 6mm thick slices and brush thoroughly with olive oil on both sides. Finely chop 1 garlic clove. Place 80g breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon of oregano, garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of pepper in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Spread 3 tablespoons of olive oil as evenly as possible in a pan and heat over medium heat. Add one zucchini slice to the breadcrumb mixture on each side, thoroughly coating, and spread in the pan. Cover and fry over medium heat for 10 minutes, then turn over and fry for another 10 minutes until the zucchini is golden brown. Serve immediately warm as a side dish.
