Before I share the recipe I would like to alert my readers that the marinade has to be prepared two days in advance. Critical piece of information to be noted and followed.
Zucchini, a squash is considered to be a vegetable in the culinary universe but is a fruit in the botanical world. The Pennsylvanian joke that on 8th August of every year, children or adults often in camouflage sneak in at midnight and leave bags of zucchini at their neighbours' doorsteps and make a dash for their life after ringing the doorbell speaks of sweet friendships and neighbourhood sharing. True to this story, I also experienced this salad over a warm dinner at Neha and Glenn's home.
For the marinade/dressing; mix olive oil, oyster sauce,vinegar,sugar, soy sauce, chopped mint leaves, chopped Thai red chillies and minced garlic. All the ingredients except the red chillies are in equal proportions. Use half the quantity of red chillies. Store in the refrigerator for 2 days.
Slice zucchini, use both green and yellow ones. Toss with the dressing. Serve after 20 minutes. Serve cold.
