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.
