Baked Courgette Chips

June 16, 2013 by manjirichitnis 4 Comments

I often crave to munch on something like most of us do and just munching on something so different and bursting with flavour is satiating.

Plus there’s a lot less guilt munching on something that’s baked rather than deep-fried right?? Well, ahem! This recipe was adapted from one I found on All Recipes.

What I love most about this is that it’s done quickly, give it a prep time of 5 min, a cook time of 15 mins, and is ready in 20 minutes! What more can one ask for, just get that oven fired up people!

So here’s what you will need :

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium courgettes
  • 2 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
  • 100 gm Golden Breadcrumbs
  • 2 Egg whites
  • SmokedSea Salt as per taste
  • Groundblack pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Mixed Italian herbs
  • Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Add the breadcrumbs, cheese, herbs, smoked sea-salt ( I use Oak-smoked Anglesey sea salt, it really packs a punch) ,ground black pepper, Italian herb-mix into a bowl and mix well
  • Pour the egg whites into another small bowl
  • Slice the courgettes fine, I use a mandolin to get wafer-thin round slices
  • Dip the courgette slices into the egg whites and then quickly into the bread crumb mix
  • Pre heat the oven
  • Line a baking tray with foil and using a brush apply some olive oil to the foil or use a low-calorie oil spray
  • Place the courgette slices onto the baking tray
  • Bake each side for 5 minutes at at 240°C / Gas Mark 9
  • Once completely cool, transfer to an air-tight container and consume within 1-2 days

I gobbled them up in one sitting! All washed down with a big cuppa of my steaming hot and sweer masala Chai, perfect for a summer afternoon when all you want to do is read that ”unputdownable” book! I am currently reading Dan Brown’s Inferno, what’s on your reading list?

It’s a BRIGHT and SUNNY DAY !

March 28, 2012 by manjirichitnis 3 Comments

It’s one of those day’s when I ache to grab a mini picnic lunch and a mat , rush to the local park, lie down with a good book and sip some lemonade chilled ofcourse . I dream of falling asleep with the book gently resting on my tummy and the sound of bees buzzing around in the distance , tiny flowers popping up in the grass around me and experiencing a feeling of complete bliss – the feeling of doing nothing and yet doing everythings .

Just the thought makes me smile 🙂
