We went to the flea market this morning.......looking for flower pots and fun things for our patio........it was way to cold to enjoy looking so headed for home and French Dips. We had some left over roast beef so decided on French Dips, french fries, fried zucchini and onion rings. Boy, that sounds like a lot of fried food, doesn't it? We have already discussed the basics on French Dips so will zero in on the deep fried vegys.
We have always enjoyed those crispy/airy deep fried vegys from some of the restaurants we have gone to over the years. I finally found my version which I think is really good. Soak your onion rings and zucchini in buttermilk for about an hour before frying........then dip in flour seasoned with cayenne and drop into your hot oil. I guarantee they will be crispy and light and airy. If you serve all of this with a nice salad you won't feel quite so guilty about all of the fried food. Be sure and make a fun dip for the fried vegys too. I am excited for the weather to get a little warmer and we will be able to have summer salads for dinner.
Did you know this is National Apple Pie Month? Now, whoever thought of that........knows absolutely nothing about apples...........why would we have Apple Pie Month in the spring?!? Its fall when we have all of those beautiful fresh apples falling off the trees..........sounds like someone sitting in Washington DC just got hungry for Apple Pie! LOL!
