Need to know how to make Zucchini Fries?
This recipe, from Angie, makes crispy zucchini fries easy to do. Zucchini fries are a very tasty! After making this recipe, I came up with some alternative herbs to use for the dip. Enjoy!
1 Medium Zucchini
1 1/2 Cups large fat free seasoned restaurant style croutons
1 oz Parmesan cheese, divided
1 egg white
1/2 Cup plain yogurt
1/2 Cup loosely packed Basil (can also use Dill, Chives or Cilantro); if you cannot find fresh herbs I found the tubes of chopped herbs you can squeeze sold in produce dept of store work very well.
3 Tbsp Light Mayo
2 garlic cloves peeled
1/2 tsp black pepper
Preheat oven to 450 and line cookie sheet with parchment paper. Trim and discard ends of zucchini; cut in half crosswise then cut each half using the french fry cutter (or cut into 3/8 in sticks) and discard any thinner pieces. Place croutons in manual food processor and finely chop. Place chopped croutons and half of parmesan cheese in coating tray; mix well.
Whisk egg white in classic batter bowl until frothy. Add zucchini; mix gently until well coated. Dredge zucchini in crouton mixture, pressing firmly to coat. Arrange zucchini in single layer on cookie sheet. Bake 14-16 minutes or until crisp.
Meanwhile, for dip, combine remaining cheese, yogurt, basil (or herb of choice), mayo, garlic and black pepper in manual food processor (or press garlic if using the squeezable tube of fresh herbs) and blend well. Remove cookie sheet from oven and serve zucchini fries with dip.
