This recipe is a beauty!!! Here’s what you will need:
Ingredients:
12 zucchini flowers, cleaned
1 large Fior di latte or Mozzarella, cut into thin strips
12 anchovy filets
1 egg yolk
1 cup of AP flour
1 cup sparkling water, cold
3 ice cubes
Vegetable oil for deep frying
Salt to taste
Stuff the zucchini flowers with fior di latte or mozzarella and anchovy filets.
Create a batter by mixing egg yolk, flour, sparking water in a bowl. Mix until it’s a smooth pancake like batter, then add ice cubes and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil, test it with a drop of batter to see if it sizzles. If it sizzles proceed to dip the flowers in the batter, drip excess batter and gently place battered flowers in the hot oil. Make sure you don’t over crowed the pan, fry in batches. When crisped up and golden, remove and put on a plate with an absorbent paper towel to drain excess oil and add a little salt. Serve immediately.

Thank you! Your videos are excellent.
I am big fan,I always watch your shows such as David Rocco Dolce Vita,David Rocco Dolce India,David Rocco Dolce Africa and David Rocco Dolce Italia in National Geographic and Nat Geo People tv channels.I always admire your talent and passion of impletening italian cuisine in to indian cuisine.I cant wait to see your new show David Rocco Dolce South East Asia in National Geographic because I am a Malaysian and I cant want to see your reaction towards Malaysian cuisine which is one of the worlds most diversed cuisine and the implementation of Italian cuisine towards Malaysian cuisine.
Beautifully done David!! 👍🏻😊
do visit INDIA again !!!!
I planted a whole bunch of zucchini mainly for the flowers but had lots of problems. First they were attacked by green worms and then the extreme heat here in Naples, Florida killed them. Guess I’ll have to wait and plant new ones in late September. Take care buddy and God Bless you and the famiglia.
Wouldnt the mozzarella ooze out in oil ?
Sir, again come to india, u r a v nice person
Love from India 🥰

Im from Veneto & my mom been making these zucchini flowers with mozzarella & anchovies forever ❤👍🇮🇹
nanny called em cucutziele(spelling) .she never stuffed em tho
I was in Rome and Naples couple of weeks ago. This was one of my favourite dishes, that I will prepare very soon. Found very cheap plants – amazing with flowes. Now I am really afraid I will destroy the whole thing by harvesting too late or too early. I am in Sweden.
I used to LOVE these when I lived in Rome, now I’m in the UK and you certainly can’t get the flowers at a farm or market. So I grow courgettes mainly for the flowers. Thanks for the video Davide – but do you need to ‘clean’ them? I also chop them up and put them in an omelette, or with roasted vegetables
