Servings 6 People

Equipment

  • Meat Slicer or Veggie Peeler

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Zucchini
  • 1 Cup Flour
  • 1 Cup Ground Parmesan Cheese
  • 4 Eggs, whipped
  • 2 Tbsp Milk
  • 1 Cup Italian Bread Crumbs
  • 2 Tsp Salt
  • 2 Tsp Pepper, or Tony Chacheries for more kick
  • 4 Cups Vegetable Oil
  • 2 Cups Marinara Sauce
  • 10-15 Toothpicks

Instructions
 

  • Cut ends off zucchini. Slice it in very thin layers. We used our meat slicer, which worked great but a vegetable peeler would work fine. Dry pieces with paper towel to absorb extra moisture.
  • Heat vegetable oil in heavy pan. Get it hot, but not too hot
  • While oil heats, cut mozzarella into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Meanwhile, place flour, eggs, parmesan, and bread crumbs into separate bowls. We whipped the eggs with milk. Season the bread crumbs with salt, pepper, and/or Tony Chacheries
  • Place 2 pieces of zucchini into a cross. Put a piece of mozzarella in the center. Pull the BOTTOM sections to meet in the center, then grab the other section and secure with a toothpick. We occasionally needed to use 2.
  • Dip in flour, egg wash, Parmesan and seasoned bread crumbs. We used a spoon to make this part a little easier.
  • Carefully put zucchini into hot oil. We used a ladle and were able to add 4-5 at a time. Cover with anti-splatter shield and cook for 2 minutes. Lower heat if it appears to be too hot.
  • Remove to paper towel covered plate, and continue to the next batch.
  • When cool enough to eat, dip in marinara sauce and enjoy.
