Today's hot dog lunch with zucchini chips
On Friday, I got beautiful organic vegetables from the YUM Farm in Cipanas, and I had specifically asked for tomatoes, beetroots, cucumbers and zucchini. However, I was feeling a bit tired of the usual ratatouille, zucchini au gratin and sauteed zucchini so I started browsing..... until I found this interesting recipe for Zucchini Oven Chips. It looked really easy so I thought ok I'll try them out and hopefully Amal will like them.... And he did!! He even said: "Mama you should open a restaurant. We'll call it ROM...Restaurant Of Mama!" :)
The recipe is quite simple.
ZUCCHINI OVEN CHIPS
Ingredients:
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoon milk
2 1/2 cups sliced zucchini (about 2 small or 1 medium)
Cooking spray
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees celcius.
