Deep Fried Zucchini
Get 2 kine - Here is #1
INGREDIMENTS
• 4 medium zucchini, about 2 pounds
• 3 eggs
• Salt
• Black pepper
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups bread fresh crumbs,
• Neutral oil, such as canola, for deep-frying
• ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish
• 2 lemons, quartered, for serving (optional)
PREPARATION
1. Trim stem ends from zucchini and cut either crosswise into slices about 1/2-inch thick or into French-fry-like sticks. Heat the oven to 200. Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl or pie plate. Set up an assembly line of a plate of flour, the plate of eggs and a plate of bread crumbs. Have a baking sheet ready, and several rectangles of wax or parchment paper.
2. Coat a zucchini piece in the flour, dip in the egg and coat in the bread crumbs. You want a thin, even layer of each coating; shake off any excess. Put coated zucchini on baking sheet in a single layer, top with wax or parchment paper and repeat with remaining slices. Chill for at least 10 minutes or up to 3 hours.
3. Put a large heavy skillet or a deep broad saucepan over medium heat and pour in enough oil to come up the sides at least 1/2 inch. While the oil heats, line a plate with paper towels. The oil is ready when a pinch of flour sizzles immediately.
4. Put a few zucchini pieces in the oil without crowding. When the bottoms brown, after 2 to 3 minutes, turn and cook the other side for 2 to 3 minutes, adjusting heat to keep oil sputtering without smoking or burning zucchini. As each piece is done, put it on the paper towels to drain, turning to blot it on both sides if needed. Transfer to an ovenproof platter and keep warm in oven while you finish cooking. Add and heat up oil as necessary.
5. (Optional) Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
6. I like to serve using Ranch Dressing dip instead of using #5 lemon wedges.
Here is #2
Ingredimiments
• 1 any kine size zucchini,
• Philadelphia cream cheese
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups bread fresh crumbs or panco
• Neutral oil, such as canola, for deep-frying
• either ranch dressing or a dressing of your choice for dipping
Directions
Cut zucchini in thin slices
lay criss-cross on a cutting board then add slice of cream cheese then fold over the remaining zucchini slices over the cheese, stick with a tooth pick then dip into the eggs, then dip into the flour, then dip into the bread crumbs or Panco, then into the deep fryer. Fry up for about 2 min until golden brown. Dip and eat.
At this point, you can substitute just about anything to make any flavor you choose. You still use the same basic formula, only add the bacon, shrimp or whatever stuffings you like. Here are a couple ideas.

Binoilos
Ingrediments:
All purpose flour
Sugar
Bananas
coconut oil
Directions:
First take your stove and cover all the non used burners since this will make a mess and you will spend hours cleaning your stove.
Pre-heat your coconut oil in a large frying pan or wok.
Next put about 2 cups flour into a mixing bowl,
add 3 serving spoons of sugar (not tsp or tbl spoons - military size serving spoon)
dry mix it all together.
For this size order, cut up 2 long bananas and stir inside
Add water to make a very thick paste and stir it all together.
Now put the batter into the heated coconut oil (set on high) and fry it all up.
Personally, I like them cooked on the medium dark side, but not too crunchy. Wifey likes them cooked till they're crispy uneatable, dark & crunchy. I cook them till they look like this when you're pau.
This will make about 15 binoilos. Each person usually eats 3-4 each.

Breakfast - French Toast
French Toast Ingrediments
Bread (personally, I like Honey Oat
Eggs
Sugar
Butter
To make it sweeter, you could add a few drops of vanilla or if you're short on eggs, you could also add a little milk
Directions
Simply take 3 eggs and add a bunch of white sugar, (3 eggs makes 5 pcs)
Stir them up in a bowl large enough to hold a slice of bread
Dip the bread in the bowl till it's covered both sides
Then put in a frying pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick element
Fry up till browned on both sides.
Take the bread out and butter only. (There is no syrup in this recipe)
Repeat: No syrup is needed. Simply
1. butter the bread,
2. roll it up like a burrito and
3. eat.
I keep the heat high at first then to about medium to low. Unless I'm real hungry then I bump it up a bit.
3 eggs will make about 5 pieces of toast so plan your meal accordingly. Everybody going eat & you need 9-10 pcs., simple math, use 6 eggs.
This is what the end product looks like

Hawaiian Sriracha Garlic Shrimp
INGREDIMENTS:
2 lbs 16-20 U Shrimps, head off, shell on and butterflied (the bigger the shrimps, the better!)
Butter (any kine)
Minced garlic to taste
Sriracha Chili Sauce
Worcestershire sauce (optional) . . . personally, I no use this
Optional - baste flower and then cook up.
Directions:
1. In pan #1 - Put butter & garlic in pan, put shrimp in butter.
2. In pan #2 - Put Olive oil in pan and heat, add onions & mushrooms.
3. In pan #2 now add sriracha over the mushrooms and stir up.
3. Mix together and your good to go.
2. Over medium heat, melt 1/2 stick butter with 1 tablespoon Olive Oil. Add a heaping spoonful of garlic and begin to saute' 20-30 seconds. Add shrimp in a single layer and allow to fry 1-1/12 min. depending on the size of shrimp
3. Flip shrimp over and cook for another 30 seconds before adding 1/4 cup Chicken Stock, 1/8 tsp salt, 3-5 dashes of Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, squirt of lemon juice and 2 squirts of sriracha sauce. Toss together another 30 seconds and pull off the heat immediately. Repeat process with remaining shrimp until all is cooked.
4. Serve over rice with extra lemon on the side for the perfect Hawaiian shrimp truck experience. Must be eaten with hands, sucking the delicious garlic butter off before peeling and shoving rapidly into your waiting mouth.
COOKING NOTES:
1. I had a small pan at my sister’s house so I did this recipe in 3-4 batches. But you can easily do it in 2 if you have a bigger skillet. This is all to your taste, if you don’t like spicy, go easy on the pepper sauce and vice verse. I was cooking to my family’s taste.
2. Don’t over cook the garlic! It shouldn’t be crispy by any means. It should be soft, sticky and a bit nutty.
3. It occurred to me after the fact, but some sliced scallion would be dead nice with all this shrimpy butter goodness.
4. If you aren’t a rice eater, get some bread and toast it up nice and crispy to dip into the gorgeous butter broth.
