[quote=Anonymous]Frying won't cook out all of the nutrients. It's considered less healthy because it adds fat (and people usually add salt too), but if your child is really thin and doesn't like veggies, accepting extra fat in order to get more veggies may be a fine tradeoff for you. Boiling veggies can leach out the nutrients because they soak out of the vegetable into the water, which is then drained off (ever notice how the cooking water takes on the color of the vegetable?). That doesn't happen with frying. You can also try tossing the zucchini slices in an egg wash, then coating in breadcrumbs. Spread out on a baking sheet, and spray with an oil spray (PAM, spray olive oil, etc). Bake in a 350 degree oven until cooked and crispy. Sweet potato "French fries" can also be baked in an oven, less work and less mess than deep frying.[/quote]
