Zucchini Sticks Recipe

  • 2 quarts oil for frying
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 zucchini, quartered
  • 3/4 cup Italian-style dry bread crumbs
  1. In a heavy saucepan or deep fryer, preheat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. In a blender, mix the eggs, whipped cream, pepper and salt. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
  3. Slice the zucchini into pieces 2 to 3 inches long. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture, then coat them with the bread crumbs.
  4. Carefully place the battered pieces in the oil and fry 3 to 4 minutes, until brown and crispy. Drain fried pieces on a paper towel. Repeat until all the slices have been fried.
