Method

5 steps · 20 minutes

Cut the zucchini lengthwise into planks about half an inch thick and brush them with the oil.
Heat a grill pan or heavy skillet over high heat until it smokes, then lay the planks in and leave them for 3 minutes, until charred in stripes. Turn and give them 2 minutes more.
Salt them only once they come off the heat. Salted first, they weep and steam instead of charring.
Stir the garlic and a pinch of salt into the yogurt and spread it on a plate.
Lay the warm zucchini over the yogurt and finish with torn mint and the lemon zest.
