Crispy Parmesan Rounds Food

PARMESAN CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour a heaping tablespoon of Parmesan onto a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. A silicone baking sheet is highly recommended. Repeat with the remaining cheese, spacing the spoonfuls about a 1/2 inch apart.
• Bake for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Cool.

PARMESAN ROUNDS

Steps:

• Using a round cookie cutter, make four 1 1/2" circles per slice of bread.
• Butter each slice on one side.
• Broil, turning once until lightly toasted.
• In a small bowl combine the remainder of ingredients until smoothly blended.
• Spread 1 tsp on the buttered side of each "toast".
• May be frozen in an airtight container at this point - do not thaw before broiling.
• Broil 4" from heat for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
• Serve hot.

CRISPY PARMESAN BOWLS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, spread 1/4 cup cheese thinly and evenly over the bottom to form a 7-inch circle. Put the pan over medium heat and cook until the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Put a small bowl upside down on a cutting board. When the bubbling stops, about 1 minute, carefully remove the disk with a thin metal spatula and drape it over the bowl. Press gently with the spatula so it forms a bowl. Be careful, as it is very fragile. Let cool.
• Remove the Parmesan bowl, put it onto a plate, and fill with Caesar salad. Serve.

PARMESAN CHEESE ROUNDS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to 425 degrees F.
• With a 2 1/8-inch cookie cutter, cut 2 rounds out of each slice of bread. Arrange the rounds on a baking sheet and place 5 inches from the heat source. Toast the bread on one side until they are golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Using a whisk, mix together the mayonnaise and Parmesan in a small bowl. Remove the bread from the oven and turn the rounds over to the untoasted sides. Spread each with a thin layer of mustard. Put 1 onion slice on top and cover with about 1 teaspoon of the mayonnaise mixture, spreading the mixture across the onion and bread.
• Broil until golden, about 1 minute. Never take your eyes off these; the time varies with different ovens. Work in batches of 24 rounds. Serve one batch hot while the next is cooking.

CRISPY PARMESAN POTATO AND GREEN ONION ROUNDS

Steps:

• Set oven to 400°F (set rack to bottom position).
• Melt the butter in the microwave.
• Generously spray a 15 x 10-inch baking sheet with cooking spray, then drizzle a small amount of butter over the cooking spray (I use the non-stick heavy-duty foil for this).
• Layer the thinly sliced potatoes in the bottom of the baking sheet overlapping slightly.
• Sprinkle with lots salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
• Drizzle the melted butter over the potatoes, then evenly sprinkle with green onion.
• Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
• Bake uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are just fork tender (watch closely the thinner your slices are the faster they will cook!).
• Lift off using a spatula.
• Delicious!

ZUCCHINI PARMESAN CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with the oil. In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, and a few turns of pepper. Dip each round into the Parmesan mixture, coating it evenly on both sides, pressing the coating on to stick, and place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the zucchini rounds until browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove with spatula. Serve immediately.

PARMESAN ROASTED ZUCCHINI ROUNDS

Steps:

• Line a baking tray with foil, and spray with non-stick spray. (Toaster oven works great for this if it has a baking tray).
• Arrange zucchini in a single layer and drizzle with olive oil, rub them down and turn to coat both sides with a thin coating of oil.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Then top each round with a generous pinch of parmesan.
• Broil in 450 degree oven for 5-8 minutes, or until cheese is melted and golden. (Cook times may vary depending on oven, so keep an eye on it).

EASY PARMESAN POTATO ROUNDS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Butter a small baking dish.
• Place a layer of sliced potatoes in the bottom of the dish, then season with salt, pepper and a little garlic powder.
• Sprinkle with some sliced onions.
• Drizzle with a little melted butter.
• Repeat layering in the same matter ending up with a layer of potatoes.
• Drizzle the top layer of potatoes with melted butter, and then sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
• Bake uncovered for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and golden brown.
• Delicious!

OVEN-BAKED CRISPY ZUCCHINI ROUNDS

Steps:

• Set oven to 450 degrees (yes 450 degrees, or even a little higher if possible, this will create a crispy crust!).
• In a bowl mix together the panko bread crumbs with seasoned salt, black pepper, garlic powder, cayenne (if using) and Parmesan cheese.
• Place the egg whites into a shallow bowl.
• Dip the zucchini slices into the egg whites (letting any excess egg whites drip off).
• Coat the slices in the panko mixture (use fingers to firmly adhear the mixture to the slices if necessary).
• Place on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake for about 5-6 minutes; turn over and continue to bake for another 6-9 minutes, or until browned and crispy.
• As soon as the slices come out of the oven sprinkle with finely grated cheddar cheese if desired.
• Delicious!

PARMESAN CRISPS

Steps:

• Prep a baking tray & cover in greaseproof paper.
• Put a round former of your choice on the tray & fill with finely grated parmesan
• Here is the recipe in full
• . Grate the Parmesan finely. (The finest Microplane grater does a good job because it produces thin ribbons, not granules.)
• 2. Put a sheet of greaseproof paper (or a silpat sheet, if you have one) over the back of a baking tray (better to put it over the back than inside the tray, as it is easier subsequently to slide the Crisps off if you don't have to negotiate the rim of the tray at the same time).
• 3. Using a 2" circular pastry-cutter, place the cutter on top of the greaseproof paper and sprinkle a heaped teaspoon of cheese inside the cutter to make a complete disk; make sure the edge of the disk particularly is well covered. (Do NOT press the cheese down into place - it will melt and collapse delicately into itself as it bakes.)
• 4. Move the cutter along, and repeat the process. Continue until the greaseproof paper is covered in cheese disks. Leave a few millimetres between each disk - they don't spread in baking like biscuits do.
• 5. Bake at 175C for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. They start to brown when they stop bubbling, so watch them carefully. When golden brown transfer them to a wire rack to cool and crisp. Store in an air-tight container, and try not to eat too many before you have to serve them to your guests!
• Enjoy.

PARMESAN POTATO ROUNDS

Steps:

• Pour butter into a 15-1/2-in. x 10-1/2-in. x 1-in. baking pan. In a plastic bag, combine flour, cheese, salt and pepper. Shake a few potato slices at a time in the bag to coat with the flour mixture. Place potatoes in a single layer over the butter. Bake at 375° for 30 minutes. Turn slices and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Bake 30 minutes more or until tender.
