Notes
- Note 1
- After you sliced the zucchini, sprinkle them with about ¾ teaspoon of salt and let them rest for about 10 minutes in a colander. This will help to pull some water out of zucchini. The, dry the zucchini with a paper towel and arrange in a baking dish along with potatoes.
- Pre-salting the zucchini. Several readers commented that their Courgette Gratin comes out watery because zucchini releases too much liquid. I've never had this issue before, but to be on the safe side, I recommend salting zucchini before cooking. This will help to pull a little bit of water out of zucchini.
- Here's how to do it:
- After you sliced the zucchini, sprinkle them with about ¾ teaspoon of salt and let them rest for about 10 minutes in a colander. Set the colander over a sink or a bowl.
- After that, pat dry the zucchini with a paper towel and proceed to the next cooking step.
- Storing and Reheating. You can store Zucchini Au Gratin covered in a refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat in a microwave. Since, it's a potato and cream-based dish, I wouldn't advice to freeze it.
