If you think you’ve tried everything, maybe you’re wrong: have you ever tried green beans? Here is the idea for the vegetarian snack you don’t expect!
A vegetarian snack. The fried green beans are an idea to prepare as fast finger food for an aperitif or even a side dish, perhaps to propose vegetables to children who would otherwise not like.
Green beans should not be cooked, but directly passed in a batter before being immersed in boiling oil.
Obviously, they are delicious served hot and perhaps with some salt that we will then suggest.
Here is the recipe
Ingredients
300 g of green beans
200 g of water
150 g of flour 0
150 g of breadcrumbs
peanut oil
Method
The first thing to do is to carefully wash the green beans, dry them and then remove the ends with your hands or a small knife.
Separately, prepare the batter by adding the water to the flour a little at a time and mixing well with a hand whisk, eliminating the lumps. The water must be cold enough and if you want a tempura- like frying, use sparkling water.
Dip the green beans first in the batter and then in the breadcrumbs and then cook them in peanut oil at temperature.
Drain them on the paper for frying and add salt.
Serve them immediately otherwise they lose consistency.
What to do if they advance
If they are left over, but not left over, you can keep them in the refrigerator in a container with a lid for up to two days.
You can then use them in a salad to make it tastier and if you want to heat them pass them in the oven for a few minutes in the grill function, in this way they will find a little crunchiness.
You can also possibly use them to prepare a sort of fake parmigiana by alternating layers of fried green beans with tomato sauce, parmesan and mozzarella and then bake everything in a static oven at 200 ° for about 30 minutes.
Tasty accompanying sauces
To accompany the fried green beans we suggest a classic mayonnaise or 10 very original creative variations , or a delicate mustard. Vegan mayonnaise is
also excellent , without eggs, but prepared with soy milk or the classic tzaziki with Greek yogurt.
