Unpretentious Croatian vegetable casserole with aromatic herbs. The dish can serve as a side dish, as well as be the main dish. It is very convenient that the potatoes can be boiled in advance, while you can cook it "in uniform".

Boil the potatoes in their skins, peel and cut into thin slices. Peeled zucchini cut into thin strips or slices, roll in flour and fry on both sides.

To reduce carbs, omit the potatoes and breadcrumbs, and increase the amount of zucchini or use cauliflower slices as a substitute.

What can I serve with this casserole for a complete meal?

Pair it with a fresh green salad, crusty bread, or grilled chicken for a balanced and satisfying meal.

How can I adjust the recipe for a larger group?

Double the ingredients and use a 9x13-inch baking dish. Increase baking time by 5-10 minutes if needed.

Can I freeze this casserole for later use?

Yes, assemble the casserole but don't bake it. Cover tightly and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before baking as directed.

Lightly salt the zucchini slices and let them sit for 10 minutes, then pat dry with paper towels before frying to remove excess moisture.
