Battered Zucchini

Battered Zucchini



Prep Time: 25 Min

Cook Time: 12 Min

 

1. Use a mandolin set to the second lowest setting to slice the zucchinis. Once sliced, lay them out on a cooling rack and sprinkle them with sea salt. Top the slices with a paper towel and place a plate or something heavy on top to help press the water out of them. Leave for 15 – 20 minutes.

 

1. In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, club soda, baking powder, salt, and pepper.

 

1. Fill a large frying pan with enough oil to fully submerge the slices of zucchini. Set the heat to just above medium. Once the oil starts to gently bubble and pop, it is ready to begin frying.

 

1. Use tongs to dip the zucchini in the batter. Shake off excess and transfer immediately to the frying pan. Fry in batches to avoid over crowding. They will need about 2 minutes per side.

 

1. Once cooked, transfer them to a paper towel lined plate and sprinkle them with salt. Continue until all slices are fried.

 

1. For service, lay the battered zucchini slices on a serving plate and finish with a sprinkle of dried parsley.
