Crispy Vegetables With Herby Mayo Recipe
Serves: 4
Ingredients for Herby Mayo with Chosen Foods Mayo Recipe:
- 1 cup mixed soft herbs (such as basil, chives, parsley, cilantro, dill, and/or tarragon)
- 1 cup Chosen Foods Classic Mayo made with 100% Pure Avocado Oil
- 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
Ingredients for Crispy Vegetables with Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Recipe:
- 6 cups Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil (for frying)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 1 cup club soda
- ¼ pound green beans, ends trimmed
- ¼ pound oyster mushrooms
- ¼ pound Japanese sweet potato or kabocha squash, sliced into ¼ inch rounds or wedges
- 12 squash blossoms
- freshly ground black pepper
- kosher salt
- lemon wedges, for serving
Directions for Herby Mayo Recipe:
-
Place herbs in the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times until coarsely chopped. Add Chosen Foods Classic Mayo made with 100% Pure Avocado Oil, lemon juice, and 2 Tbsp. water, and process until mostly smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer herby mayonnaise to a small serving bowl and set aside.
Directions for Crispy Vegetables Recipe:
- Pour Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil into a medium Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot. Heat over medium-high until an instant-read thermometer registers 350°F.
- Whisk together flour and cornstarch in a large bowl. Add club soda and whisk just to blend (some lumps are okay). The batter should resemble thin pancake batter. Season with some salt and pepper.
- Working in batches so as not to overcrowd pot and returning oil to 350° between batches, dip some mixed vegetables into batter, letting excess drip back into bowl. Fry, turning once, until golden and crisp, 1 minute for quicker-cooking vegetables such as green beans and up to 3 minutes for squash. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a paper towel–lined wire rack to drain; immediately season with salt. Repeat with remaining vegetables.
- Serve fried vegetables hot with herby mayonnaise and lemon wedges.
