Panko Fried Vegetables Food

PANKO-FRIED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Put at least 2 inches oil in a large, deep pot over medium-high heat; bring to 350 degrees (or use an electric deep-fryer). Combine the flour with 2 cups cold water; the mixture should have the consistency of thin pancake batter.
• Powder the panko by forcing it through a strainer with a spatula or pulverizing it in a blender or food processor. Dredge the vegetables first in flour, then in the tempura batter and finally in the powdered panko. Fry the vegetables in the hot oil, working in batches and turning each piece as necessary, until crisp and brown all over, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

PANKO FRIED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, eggs and bread crumbs. Dip tomatoes in flour, then in eggs; coat with bread crumbs., In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry tomatoes, a few at a time, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately.

• Combine panko and salt together in a shallow bowl. Whisk eggs in a separate small bowl. Combine broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potato, winter squash, onion, and green beans together in a large bowl; add flour and toss to coat evenly.
• Shake excess flour from each vegetable piece, dip into beaten egg and press into panko mixture. Gently toss between your hands so any panko crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place vegetables onto prepared baking sheet; do not stack.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, turning occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir soy sauce, water, rice vinegar, and sugar together in a saucepan over medium heat until hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add green onion. Serve sauce alongside vegetables.
