Recipe


Ingredients

  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 cup ice-cold soda water
  • 2 cups tapioca flour
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • Extra-virgin coconut oil
  • 3 small zucchini, quartered lengthways
  • Asian Dipping Sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice-malt syrup
  • 2 tbsp wheat-free tamari
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes

Method


  • To make the dipping sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan over medium–high heat and bring to the boil.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 mins or until the sauce is reduced by half. Pour into a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolk and soda water, then slowly whisk in the tapioca flour and salt to make a thin batter.
  • In a saucepan over medium–high heat, melt the coconut oil. When the oil is hot and working in batches, dip the zucchini into the batter, then fry until crisp.
  • Place batches on a paper towel to drain off any excess oil.
  • Serve with the dipping sauce.
