Instructions
Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, then score them in a crosshatch pattern, diagonally.
Put the zucchini on a plate and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Use a paper towel to dab the excess moisture from the zucchini.
Heat a cast iron skillet or a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and cook the zucchini face down for 5-6 minutes.
Flip the zucchini and let it cook for another 5 minutes. Remove.
To make the hum, add the butter beans, soaked cashews, garlic, lemon juice and zest, plus a pinch of salt and pepper to a small food processor. Process the hummus until smooth.
Layer the hummus to the bottom of a serving plate/s, add the roasted zucchini on top, then top the zucchini with crumbled feta, fresh mint, crushed roasted nuts, lemon zest and sumac or fresh chillies.
Notes
Store your Thomas Keller zucchini in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, once cooled completely.
To reheat your zucchini, use oven or air fryer and place the zucchini in a single layer on a lightly oiled baking sheet or container. Note: Overbaking will lead to a soggy zucchini.
