Hazırlanışı

1. Use a soft brush to clean the zucchini flowers and carefully remove the inner stamen. Leave at least 2 inches of stem intact to aid in dipping and frying. Place a cube of cheese and a small anchovy in each zucchini flower, then gently twist the top to enclose it. In a small bowl, add about 3/4 cup of flour and a pinch of salt. Add enough beer to the flour to create a batter as thick as heavy cream, whisking until smooth. Beat the two egg whites until stiff, then fold the whites into the batter. Heat the frying oil in a heavy bottomed saucepan until it reaches 375 degrees F. checking it with a kitchen thermometer. Sprinkle the flour onto a plate. Dredge the stuffed zucchini flowers in the flour, then dip them into the batter until lightly coated, holding the flower over the bowl for a few seconds letting the excess batter drip off. Carefully lower the stuffed zucchini flowers into the hot oil in batches. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on a plate topped with a few layers of kitchen paper. Repeat the process with the remaining stuffed zucchini flowers until they are all fried. Serve on a platter with a sprinkling of sea salt on top, and serve immediately.
