01 Step
Recipe View
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan to 350°F (175°C). Ensure there's enough oil to fully submerge the zucchini spirals. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined. Pour this mixture into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. (2 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour and cornstarch. Pour this mixture into another gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. (2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
Place the zucchini spirals into the bag with the egg mixture, seal, and gently toss to ensure all spirals are evenly coated. (3 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Transfer the coated zucchini spirals to the bag with the flour mixture. Seal the bag and gently shake to coat the spirals completely with the flour mixture. (3 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Remove the zucchini spirals from the flour mixture and gently shake off any excess flour to prevent clumping in the hot oil. (2 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Carefully add the coated zucchini spirals to the preheated oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. (10 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Remove the fried zucchini spirals with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. (2 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View
While the zucchini is still hot, sprinkle generously with seafood seasoning to taste. Serve immediately for the best crispy texture. (1 minute)
For extra crispy zucchini, consider double-dredging: Dip in the egg mixture, then flour, then egg again, and finally flour.
If you don't have a spiral slicer, you can cut the zucchini into thin matchsticks or chips.
Experiment with different seasonings! Garlic powder, paprika, or a dash of cayenne pepper can add a unique flavor.
Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature before frying; otherwise, the zucchini may become soggy.
Don't overcrowd the fryer, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in less crispy zucchini.
