- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Coarse grained salt and cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon green peppercorns, drained and smashed
- 1 zucchini, sliced lengthwise into paper thin slices, see note*
- Parmesan, sliced into long curls

- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Roll each zucchini slice into a coil and place on serving plate.
- Pour dressing over zucchini.
- Drop Parmesan shavings over the plate.
- Serve immediately.
- *Note: To make zucchini ribbons, cut a thin slice off the zucchini, discard.
- Place zucchini cut side down on a cutting board so it doesn't roll.
- Drag a sharp carrot peeler across the zucchini, pressing down hard as if you were peeling a carrot.
- You will get nice long ribbons and if you don't so what!
- The dressing is delicious and presentation doesn't always matter!
- Do the best you can and move on.
