Crispy Zucchini Fries Recipe (Vegan) Recipe
By Earth of Maria
🔪Prep Time: 5 mins
👩🍳Cook Time: 10 mins
Ingredients
3 large zucchinis
1 cup flour
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup plant based milk
1 cup cashews, soaked for 4 hours or simmered for 15 minutes
1/2 cup vegan cheese, grated
1/2 cup plant based milk
3 cloves garlic
2 tsp miso paste
Instructions
1Cut the zucchini either into fries or circles. To cut the zucchini into fries, firstly remove the ends, then half the zucchini horizontally. Then, proceed to cut each half into 4 segments. You can proceed to half these once more for thinner fries.
2Add the flour, paprika, garlic powder, breadcrumbs and nutritional yeast to a large mixing bowl and whisk together.
3Dip each zucchini fry into plant based milk, then into the breading. Make sure that it's evenly-coated, and shake off any excess plant based milk before dipping it into the breadcrumb mixture.
4Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat for around 30 seconds. Next, add the zucchini fries and cook for around 3-4 minutes, rotating around once every minute using kitchen tongs, until crispy and golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels before moving onto the next batch.
5Make the dip. Add the cashews, plant based milk, vegan cheese, garlic and miso paste to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Serve immediately with the fries.
