Unusual dishes are always interesting for modern housewives. What can we say about delicious and healthy dishes from products that, it would seem, are absolutely inapplicable in cooking. Today we will talk about fried zucchini flowers.
They are prepared very quickly, require a minimum of ingredients (directly flowers, egg and flour), and delight you with their unique taste.
We collect flowers of zucchini - we take only barren flowers in their full bloom. Settled zucchini (or pumpkins, or squash) leave, do not touch. Wash flowers carefully, ants and other living creatures may be inside. We proceed with one of two options:
a) cut off the stalk and the leaves surrounding it,
b) we leave the stalk, but beat it off with a hammer so that it is not hard.
We will also need 1-2 eggs (depending on the number of flowers collected), flour, spices and sunflower oil.
Egg and flour are needed for batter. There is no special need to tell how to do it. Briefly: beat the egg (you can add milk), dip the flower in the egg, then in flour and fry for 1-2 minutes. from each side. It turns out very tasty and original! Can be served hot or cold.
Bon appetit!

I also love cobweb flowers. It was very disappointing last year, when all the kobachkas rotted because of the rains, at least they enjoyed a delicious dish of kobachka flowers. I stuff them with rice and meat, though I don’t cut the cuttings.

Raisa, you are absolutely right!
In the same way, you can stuff and fry pumpkin flowers. Was a year ago in Italy, they stuff pumpkin flowers with anchovies, cheese. True, they are fried in a 3-4 cm layer of oil, as in deep fat.
