PASTA WITH ZUCCHINI SAUCE
i saw a version of this recipe on a local cooking show and have played with it to make it faster and easier for us nonprofessional cooks out there. Everytime I've made this dish I have never had a single leftover. we've also been known to add other squash, but i think it's best with the zucchini. It's very delicious, fast, and unusual. Enjoy!! **NOTE** recently I have tried slice the zucchini into julienne strips and WOW!! its like zucchini noodles, so either way is great!!!

Steps:
- Place zucchini slices on a plate and let dry for 1 hour.
- Heat 1/2 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini slices in batches and deep fry until brown, 10 to 15 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and allow to cool. Mash 1/3 of the zucchini.
- Place 3 tablespoons olive oil and garlic cloves in a large saucepan over low heat. Watch carefully and simmer until garlic cloves are a light golden brown and oil is infused with garlic flavor, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in mashed zucchini. Add zucchini slices.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain spaghetti, reserving some cooking water.
