Author Notes: Easy, fresh, crunchy, almost healthy. What is not to like. I make this for a simple dinner with rice, a good side dish or platter for a meat main or a lunch for the little one. - jwolfsthal

Serves 2, maybe

1 cup Zucchini cut into match sticks
.5 cups flour (AP), rice or spelt
.5 cups water, plus 1 TBSP
1 tablespoon Miso, or light soy sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
hot sauce
.25 cups green onion
salt and pepper

mix flour, water and miso a let sit for 15 minutes.
add oil to cast iron pan (only the best) and sautee zucchini on medium high heat - try to keep them lined up but not critical. add green onion.
add batter and tip pan to ensure even spread over and around zucchini - shake pan a bit.
don't touch. leave until you can see the batter cooked through at the edges, swirl pan to loosen
turn (or flip) and press down with spatula and cook until brown on bottom.
flip once more, let crisp up
turn onto cutting board, cut into squares and serve with soy dipping sauce or hot sauce. Serve with Rice.
