Fried Zucchini Batter

These were good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written except I used seasoning salt instead of salt. These were good but I thought they could have had more flavor. The batter could use more seasoning. I also cut back the water to 1/3 cup as others suggested.

By far the best batter I have found for vegetables. Could probably work for just about anything else too! Like others, I found I needed to adjust the amount of water. I believe 1/3 cup is what you should shoot for. Delicious.

I have made these twice and froze them. I did add some seasoning salt, and I think one time some Parmesan cheese. Hubby says they are even better than the ones I serve at work. That is why I made them twice. To reheat he just puts them in the oven, I don't know what temp, or how long. He does the when I am at work. Finally know how long to reheat them, at 425 F for 10 minutes.

I loved this recipe. It was nice and easy! I hate dipping stuff in egg and then this and then egg and then that. This is just one dip and then fry. It reminded me of a tempura batter. I will try this with other things. I'm gonna try green beans next...YUM!!!

When I see a recipe with so many good reviews, I expect it to be something special. Sorry to say, this was not. Although the consistency of the batter was ok, I thought the taste was very bland, very disappointing...just not worth all the mess. I ended up peeling the crust off my zucchini slices and reheating them with garlic and parmesan and eating it that way instead.

I think my shoes would taste good dipped and fried in this batter, that's how light, crisy & flavorful it was! Will use many times again. I followed the recipe exactly, but let the batter sit as others had suggested. It thickened, and it seemed to stick beautifully to everything, except the zucchini! It was well worth the challange because the end result was out of this world! Thanks for sharing!

Very simple and tasty recipe. I found stirring the batter frequently help "the goodness" really stand out while frying.

This was great! Very good consistency using 1/3 cup water ... 1/2 cup would be too runny. As was, when we added the veggies, the mixture became too runny, so we added a bit more flour. The finished product was crisp, flavorful, and we loved it! Hubby told me to keep this recipe for use with all kinds of foods, which is a high compliment, coming from him!

Having read some of the other reviews, I started out with half the water in this recipe. I ended up adding the rest, though. The batter clings to the vegetables and makes for a beautiful, crisp finished product. I was looking for a batter recipe that doesn't use beer, as I didn't have any on hand and very much wanted something deep fried! This certainly lives up to my expectations! :)

Wonderful basic batter recipe. I love simple and tasty and this one fits the bill. I add 1/2 tsp of onion powder as well. Monday is now "fry day" as the local farmer's market offers a variety of veggies to toss into the fry pan. Pat veggies dry to ensure maximum sticking! I use safflower oil and a thermometer (350F) and always get crispy delicious results.

This is a nice tasting recipe and very easy to make. Be sure to serve them right after cooking or they may seem soft instead of crispy.. but overall a wonderful recipe and it can be used on any veggie we even used broccoli and it was great :)

My kids were never really fans of zucchini until I tried your recipe tonight. They loved it! Based on other reviews, I used less water when making the batter, but found it to be too thick to stir. I ended up using the full amount of water and the batter turned out perfectly. I also added a little onion powder to the mixture. The zucchini sticks came out nice and crispy and the coating was delicious. This is a definite 5-star in our household!

Great batter. We really loved the zucchini cooked this way when we are not watching our fat grams. Will make again!

Just tried this and it was SUBLIME! But yes, we also had a problem with the batter being a little too runny. Instead of adding more flour/cornstarch, we spooned a little bit over each piece of zucchini in the pan and turned a couple times. Came out delightfully crispy and yummy!!!! It did remind us of tempura. This is the only way we'll do it from here on out.

I must admit I was fairly disappointed in this recipe. I followed the recipe exactly, but the outside coating came out "chewy" with not much flavor. I think if I try it again, I will mix in some corn meal to add some crispness.
