Ingredients
- 150g ricotta
- 2 Tbsp grated parmesan
- ½ bunch marjoram, chopped
- salt flakes and freshly-milled black pepper
- 12 zucchini flowers
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 cup ice cold beer
- 1 egg white
- vegetable oil, for deep frying
Instructions
1 Combine the ricotta, parmesan and marjoram in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Gently separate the petals of the zucchini flowers, then fill each with a little of the ricotta mixture. Twist the end to seal.
2 Put half the flour in a bowl, then whisk in the beer and egg white until smooth. Dust the zucchini flower heads in the remaining flour, then dip in the batter. Fry immediately in hot (180°C) vegetable oil for 2 minutes, until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
