Steps:
- Wash and trim zucchini, (DO NOT PEEL).
- Cut zucchini into about 2 1/2" long by 1/2" thick strips.
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat eggs and milk until fluffy.
- In a plastic bag, add flour, seasoning salt and shake well.
- In a separate plastic bag, add finely crushed saltine crackers.
- Dip zucchini strips in egg mixture.
- Drop into flour mixture and shake well to coat.
- Dip again into egg mixture.
- Drop into crushed crackers and shake well to coat.
- Heat olive oil to 325 F to 350 F in a medium-size frying pan or use a deep fryer.
- Drop coated zucchini (a few at a time) in the hot oil and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes, turning once, (DO NOT OVERCOOK).
- Zucchini should be crunchy.
- Serve immediately with Bearnaise Sauce as a dip.
- SAUCE FOR DIPPING: Prepare contents of Bearnaise sauce according to package directions or make your own.
- NOTE: Instead of using plastic bags, place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl, and the crumbs in a separate bowl. This will not be quite as messy.
- Also, Panko crumbs would be excellent or cornflake crumbs.
- See recipe #382043.

FRIED ZUCCHINI BATTER
Recipe from box of Argo Cornstarch in the early 80's. This batter is light and tasty. Posting recipe as request from one of my sons. This batter is great for zucchini, but can be used on any thing you would like to fry up! Many reviews complain of the lack of seasoning. I have taken the garlic powder up to 1 tsp. and it helps, a dash of hot sauce works well too. If you must, sprinkle lightly with additional salt immediately after removing from the frying oil. Another tip - I prefer the thinner batter for a lighter and crunchier coating on the veggies (the thicker batter just seems to be too doughy for our tastes).
