Betty demonstrates how to make a fantastic appetizer, her Battered Deep-Fried Sweet Zucchini Rounds. These are served with Betty's Surfin' Seafood Cocktail Sauce or ketchup.

NOTE: IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WORKING WITH HOT OIL, PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS RECIPE.

Battered Deep-Fried Zucchini Rounds

1 cup self-rising flour
1 egg, well beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
large zucchini, washed, and cut into rounds
2 inches of cooking oil in a deep fryer or pot on the stove (I used peanut oil.)

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup self-rising flour, 1 well-beaten egg, 1 cup milk, and 1/4 cup vegetable oil. Stir completely, or blend with an electric mixer. Have your zucchini rounds prepared for cooking. Heat 2 inches of oil in an electric deep fryer or a pot on the stove to somewhere between 345 degrees and 375 degrees. With tongs, dip pepper pieces in batter, allowing excess batter to drip into bowl, and then transfer to hot oil. You may fry several rounds at the same time. Fry until golden brown on both sides, and then remove with tongs or other utensil and place on paper toweling to drain. When all pieces are fried and removed, pat the upper side to remove any further excess oil. Now, place the Battered Deep-Fried Zucchini Rounds on a nice serving dish, and serve with Surfin' Seafood Cocktail Sauce or ketchup. Terrific!!!

  2. Jessica Hartzell says:

    Betty I had no idea how to make fried zucchini. I came accross this video
    in my searches to learn how and i tell you what outta all the recipies this
    one is my favorite though i do add a few things to it. I cant stop making
    fried zucchini now so thank you for posting this!!

  3. Betty's Kitchen says:

    The seafood sauce is here: youtube.com/watch?v=R5KvEgW27xw –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. TheGrowingAwareness says:

    Awesome, thank you so much for the guidance. VERY much appreciated!

  5. Betty's Kitchen says:

    If you have a freezer, you can freeze just about any vegetable. Just boil
    the sliced zucchini in water for about 3 minutes, then drain and plunge it
    into ice water for a couple of minutes. Drain on paper toweling, and then
    place in freezer bags. It’s prepared and ready to go into casseroles,
    soups, and dishes like sauteed squash. –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  6. TheGrowingAwareness says:

    Just made this … with freshly picked zucchini … incredible recipe …
    well done. I have a question though, if you know the answer. Do you know
    how to store zucchini once picked from the garden … I got way to much and
    have given a lot away to family and neighbors but still have a bunch and
    don’t want to waste it and cannot eat that much before it goes bad. I guess
    if nothing else, I can get the seeds and compost the leftovers if there is
    no way to store it over time

  7. FtC says:

    Made this last night, delicious! Thanks. ๐Ÿ™‚

  8. Wayne Hodge says:

    Thanks Betty, you’re a sweetheart. I always h ad either slaw or french
    fries with fish, the next time I have them I’ll give the squash a try.

  9. Betty's Kitchen says:

    Fried squash can go with anything–grilled chicken, baked fish, fried pork
    chops, ham, roast beef–any of these, plus something like potatoes or
    pasta. –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  10. Wayne Hodge says:

    Hi Betty, I love fried squash but when I fry up squash that’s all I have is
    the squash because I don’t know what kind of main dish to fix to go with
    it. Any suggestions?

  11. Wade Harleson says:

    Great job! Also experiment w/your favorite Italian red sauce as dipping
    sauce. Zuchinni love Italian flavorings. I some times make, when my
    eggplants aren’t producing but zuchinni are, a ‘zuchinni parmesean’.
    Chicken & eggplants love parmesean, but so do zuchinni. Just use your
    favorite red sauce/marinara, povolone or mozzerella, and of course frind
    zuchinni….you will be amazed.(I love Italian cooking, tehehhe oh, & I
    adore tender zuchinni)

  12. lambyiii says:

    yummmmmmyyy!!! i like dipping mine in ranch dressing

  13. Betty's Kitchen says:

    @brittneydargusch21 Yes, buttermilk and regular flour will be great.
    –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  14. Betty's Kitchen says:

    @LipsLikeSugar78 Thanks for your lovely comment! Your Italian take on
    deep-fried zucchini with Italian dressing sounds wonderful! –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. LipsLikeSugar78 says:

    Lovely dish as usual, Betty. ๐Ÿ™‚ I make this myself, but bread them in
    Italian seasoned breadcrumbs & serve with Italian dressing for dipping. You
    should try it. ๐Ÿ™‚

  16. Betty's Kitchen says:

    @WorldWideMMAFighting You”re probably right. I have come to do all my deep
    frying in a metal pot with at least 1/2-inch peanut oil (which has a high
    smoking point). Thanks for your nice comment! –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚

  17. WorldWideMMAFighting says:

    Looks like your oil was a bit too hot on this one . I’ve found that the
    stove is more accurate when adjusting for a proper temperature for oil
    frying .

  18. Betty's Kitchen says:

    @kduideo Thanks for your sweet comment! I am delighted that you are finding
    recipes in bettyskitchen that you can use! –Betty ๐Ÿ™‚
