Cucumber French Fries Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Line a plate with a paper towel; set aside.
• Roll the cucumber slices in the cornmeal. Fry the slices in the hot oil, a few at a time, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the cucumbers to the prepared plate; sprinkle with salt to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Mix the mayonnaise, curry powder and lime juice in a bowl and transfer to a squeeze bottle.
• Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot. Fry the French fries until crisp and cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Season with the blackening spice, salt and pepper.
• Drizzle the curry mayonnaise over the top. Garnish with the crumbled feta and bacon.

Steps:

• Soak potatoes in a large bowl of water for about 30 minutes. Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Gently add the potatoes in the hot oil for about 5 minutes, stirring and flipping the potatoes occasionally. Remove potatoes from oil with a slotted spoon to drain on paper towel and to cool completely.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry the potatoes again until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Blot with a paper towel. Sprinkle with salt to serve.

Steps:

• Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
• Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
• When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
• Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
• Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
• Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Cut zucchini into fries and set aside.
• In a large bowl combine panko, parmesan, garlic powder, basil, salt, and pepper.
• Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl or dish.
• Dip zucchini in eggs, coating evenly, and then toss in bread crumb mixture.
• Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
• Prepare dip while fries are baking. Combine all dip ingredients in a small bowl and set aside in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Peel the cucumbers.
• Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.
• Cut into lengthwise strips about 3/8 inch wide.
• Cut strips into 2 inch pieces.
• Toss the cucumber in a bowl with the vinegar, salt and sugar.
• Let stand for 30 minutes to several hours.
• Drain and pat dry in a towel.
• Preheat oven to 375.
• Toss the cucumbers in a baking dish with the butter, herbs, scallions and pepper.
• Set uncovered in the middle level of the preheated oven for about an hour, tossing 2-3 times, until cucumbers are tender, but still have a suggestion of crispiness and texture. They will barely color during cooking.
• Variation One: Parslied Cucumbers.
• In a warm vegetable dish toss with 2 Tbsp minced parsley.
• Variation Two: Creamed Cucumbers.
• Boil 1 cup whipping cream until it has reduced by half. Season with salt and pepper, fold into the hot baked cucumbers, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
