Fried Cucumbers image

A recipe from a local guy who does a produce show on our local news. I haven't tried this yet, but it looks interesting.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 1 bunch

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -4 cucumbers
2 -3 eggs
2 -3 tablespoons milk
1 -2 cup flour or 1 -2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Note - the orginal recipe didn't have ingredient amounts. When I submitted the recipe, Zaar wouldn't take it without amounts, so I just estimated. I haven't tried this recipe, and I'm just posting as a request from one of the message board topics. So go easy on the ratings and please provide tips.
  • Select cucumbers that are firm and preferably thin-skinned and small-seeded.
  • Peel, if you wish, slice into 1/8" slices and dip in beaten egg mixture (the eggs with milk). Dredge in flour or preferably Italian seasoned bread crumbs.
  • Fry in margarine or vegetable oil till browned on both sides.
  • Drain on a paper towel, salt and pepper and top with Parmesan cheese. A great appetizer or side dish.
  • Note - hot sauce in the egg mixture or cayenne in the flour or breadcrumbs might kick it up a bit.
