Postup
Krok za krokem
- 1
Steam the cleaned mussels in a pot with a splash of water for 3-5 minutes, until they open. Discard any mussels that do not open.
Přibližně 5 min
- 2
Remove the mussels from their shells and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels. Thread 3-4 mussels onto each small skewer.
Přibližně 10 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Drying the mussels well ensures a crispier batter.
- 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper for the batter.
Přibližně 2 min
- 4
Gradually add the cold water to the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth, thin batter.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: The batter should be thin enough to coat the mussels lightly.
- 5
Prepare the tarator sauce by blending the stale bread, walnuts, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, water, salt, and red pepper flakes in a food processor until smooth.
Přibližně 5 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Adjust the consistency of the tarator sauce with a little more water if needed.
- 6
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven to 175°C (350°F).
Přibližně 3 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil maintains a consistent temperature for best frying results.
- 7
Dip each mussel skewer into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and allow any excess to drip off.
Přibližně 2 min
- 8
Carefully place the battered mussel skewers into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Přibližně 5 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Overcrowding the pot will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy mussels.
- 9
Fry for 2-3 minutes per batch, until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Přibližně 5 min
- 10
Serve the fried mussels immediately with the tarator sauce and fresh lemon wedges.
