Junk food gone local


With a fridge full of potatoes and zucchini the only thing I can think of to cook is chips and fried zucchini sticks. Either I have spent too much of my life eating pub appetizers or I am seriously craving some greasy snacks. 


Zucchini Sticks

5 Medium zucchinis
2 Eggs
¾ cup flour
1 tbsp salt
Butter or bacon grease

Mix the salt and flour in a flat plate. Beat the eggs together in a bowl. Dip the zucchini pieces into the egg then the flour mixture. 
Cooking option 1- Frying pan
On medium heat fry zucchini pieces in bacon grease for 5-6 minutes on each side or until soft.
Cooking option 2- Oven
Drizzle butter over the zucchini pieces and bake at 350 for 25 min. Turning midway through.
I prefer the baked pieces:)


Oven- baked Potatoes Chips

3 potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup butter, melted
Sea salt, sprinkle
 
Put the potato slices into a bowl. Melt the butter and pour it over the potatoes. Stir- make sure the potatoes are coated with butter. Place them on a baking sheet and cook at 500°F oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Sprinkle them with the salt. 



Enjoy!
