  Vegetable oil - for frying
2   Egg yolks (large)
1 cup 237mlIce water
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozAll-purpose flour

Recipe Instructions

Pour 3 inches of oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy pot and heat to 375 degrees.

In a deep mixing bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks and pour in the ice water; mix to combine. Add the flour and continue to mix until the batter is the consistency of heavy cream.

Dip 2 zucchini flowers at a time in the batter to coat completely, letting the excess drip off. Fry the flowers in the hot oil for 2 minutes until crisp and golden brown.

Drain the fried flowers on a platter lined with paper towels, season with salt and pepper while they are still hot. Repeat with the remaining zucchini flowers.

This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
