Claire's Courgette Chips
I love courgettes and this is the most delicious way of eating them in my opinion! Method Cut the courgettes into batons about 6-8cm long and 1 cm wide. Put them in a colander and cover with table salt to remove some of the moisture. Leave for 1/2 hour. Rinse the courgettes with fresh water and pat dry with a teatowel or kitchen roll. Put some plain white flour, seasoned with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Put a serving dish in the warming oven. Coat the courgettes with the flour and seasoning and fry in in your deep-fat-frier for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. If you are improvising with a basket and saucepan, heat the oil until beginning to smoke, place a batch of courgettes in the basket, immerse the basket and courgettes in the oil, shaking the pan a little to ensure they are covered. Remove and shake basket to remove excess oil when golden. Serve immediately. Fabulous as a starter with a squeeze of lemon, or alongside a simple grilled meat or fish dish with green salad.
