A step-by-step recipe for cooking zucchini in batter
Essential ingredients for a snack:
- small salt - ½ dessert spoon;
- large eggs - 2 pcs.;
- small young zucchini - 3 pcs.;
- Refined sunflower oil - for roasting snacks;
- wheat flour - ¾ cup;
- fresh milk 3.4% - ½ cup;
- allspice black - ½ a small spoon.
Dough preparation process
The batter for zucchini is done as follows: you need to break 2 large chicken eggs into the dishes, beat them with a fork, and then add fresh milk and wheat flour. It is also worth noting that vegetables will not be salted before heat treatment, so you need to add spices directly to the dough. Having mixed all the ingredients together, they should be left aside for a while and engaged in the preparation of zucchini.
Vegetable processing
After the zucchini batter is completely ready, you need to immediately wash and clean young zucchini from the navels and stalks. Then they should be cut into circles with a thickness of 1-1.5 centimeters.
Heat treatment
Starting to fry vegetables in batter, it is imperative to heat the pan, and pour a sufficient amount of oil into it. After that, you need to dip each piece of zucchini in the batter and carefully lay it in the dishes. At one time, you can fry from 4 to 6 slices of vegetable. It is recommended to stand each side in oil for 3-5 minutes (until it becomes completely rosy). Frying the appetizer, it should be placed on a large dish, and then proceed with the preparation of aromatic sauce.
Sauce
Essential Ingredients:
- medium fat mayonnaise - 150 g;
- medium-sized fresh garlic - 2 cloves;
- Russian cheese - 120 g;
- fresh greens - a bunch.
Sauce making process
How to make a batter for zucchini, you already know. Now consider the recipe for a fragrant sauce, which should be served at the table with an appetizer. To do this, grate fresh garlic and hard cheese on a fine grater, and then add medium-fat mayonnaise and chopped greens to them. By mixing the ingredients together, you get a thick aromatic mass, which in the future needs to be put in a bowl.
How to serve to the table
An appetizer in the form of zucchini in batter is recommended to be served in the warm form for dinner (also chilled). Also to this dish should be served garlic-cheese sauce and wheat bread.
Useful Tips
1. You can make batter for zucchini without adding fresh milk to the dough. In this case, it will turn out more subtle and tough.
2. To prepare such an appetizer, it is better to purchase only young zucchini. If you have an overripe product with large seeds and a thick peel, then it is better to get rid of them. In this case, the dish will consist only of the pulp (that is, not in the form of a circle, but in the form of a ring).
