Crispy zucchini flower fritters made with a simple yeast batter, fried to golden perfection.
Method
- Clean the zucchini flowers: remove the stem, external leaves, and the bottom part. Open the flower and remove the pistil. Rinse and set aside.
- Prepare the batter: add salt to water, add yeast, and dissolve with your hands. Add roughly chopped zucchini flowers and mix. Gradually add flour, kneading by pressing with your hands to eliminate lumps, then knead quickly as shown.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for a couple of hours.
- In boiling oil, form the fritters: dip the spoon in oil first, then take the batter and shape fritters. Turn them often for even cooking, 4-5 minutes.
- Drain on paper towels.
