Fennel fritters – Finocchi fritti
Una ricetta tipica del sud Italia, o meglio del cenone di natale siciliano!
Bollire dei finocchi tagliati a spicchi per 10 minuti in acqua e sale;
Scolarli;
Passarli in un composto di uova sbattute con grana, o parmiggiano, e un pizzico di sale;
Passarli nella mollica;
Friggere in 2 cm di olio di semi e/o oliva per pochi minuti finché non assumono un colore dorato.
[Per 2 finocchi utilizzare 2 o 3 uova circa.]
