Ingredients for Bread and Zucchini Balls
- 21.2 oz zucchini
- 7.1 oz stale bread
- 2 eggs
- 2.5 oz grana cheese (grated)
- breadcrumbs
- seed oil
- salt
Preparation of Bread and Zucchini Balls
Wash the zucchini, trim them and grate them with a coarse grater, collecting them in a bowl.
Grate the stale bread as well and add it to the zucchini.
Add the eggs, grated cheese, and a generous pinch of salt and mix thoroughly until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
Let it rest in the refrigerator for at least fifteen minutes.Place some breadcrumbs on a flat plate.
Take the mixture and form, with moistened hands, balls the size of a walnut.
Roll them in the breadcrumbs, covering them on all sides.Heat plenty of seed oil in a deep-sided pan and fry the balls, a few at a time, turning them on all sides so they are perfectly golden.
Remove them with a slotted spoon and let them dry from the excess oil on a plate lined with frying paper or kitchen absorbent paper.
Serve your bread and zucchini balls immediately, piping hot.

Questions and Answers
Can they be baked?
You can bake the balls in a static oven at 350°F by placing them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper without overlapping them, drizzling with a little extra virgin olive oil, for about twenty minutes, until golden.
