To prepare fried courgette flowers, start by cleaning the courgette flowers: remove the outermost filaments and separate the flowers from the stem with pistil 1; then, rinse them gently under cold running water and pat them dry with a sheet of absorbent kitchen paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2
<\/strong>At this point, dedicate yourself to the batter: put the flour, milk, eggs and a pinch of salt in a bowl 2. Beat, add the instant yeast and mix until you obtain a fluid, smooth and lump-free batter. Make sure the milk is cold from the fridge to create crispy fried food thanks to the thermal shock with the boiling oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3
<\/strong>Heat plenty of peanut oil. In the meantime, dip one flower at a time into the batter, holding it with tongs 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cover the flower completely with the pastel, on all sides, then lift it 4 allowing the excess liquid to drain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5
<\/strong>Dip the battered flowers into the boiling oil, a few at a time. Make sure the oil is kept at a constant temperature of 175\u00b0C: use a kitchen thermometer or one of our home methods to monitor the temperature of the oil. Turn them halfway through cooking and, when they are golden brown, let them drain on absorbent kitchen paper 5. If possible, avoid the accumulation of residues of pasta, flour or other ingredients inside the pan: they will tend to burn and pollute the oil , compromising the taste and success of the fried food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 6
<\/strong>Arrange the courgette flowers on a serving plate, season them with a pinch of sales and serve immediately: the fried courgette flowers are ready to be enjoyed 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips and variations
<\/strong>In the proposed recipe we opted for a rich pasta based on eggs and milk. Alternatively, you can prepare pasta with water for a quicker and lighter version. Use sparkling water, which will provide the carbon dioxide necessary to create an airy fried food, and very cold: in this way a thermal shock will be created in contact with the boiling oil, which will make the fried food very crunchy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can try mixing other types of flour with the 00 flour, but without exaggerating: the right amount of gluten will guarantee an elastic dough. On the contrary, if the gluten is too tenacious, it could absorb excessive oil during cooking. If you don’t have instant baking powder available, you can replace it with a pinch of bicarbonate of soda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a light variant, you can cook the courgette flowers in the oven at 180\u00b0C for 20 minutes or, alternatively, in the air fryer for 10-15 minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
