Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 cucumber; 1/2 cup flour; 1 egg; 1 cup panko breadcrumbs, bread crumbs; 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese; 1/2 teaspoon cilantro; 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder; 1/8 teaspoon celery salt; 1/8 teaspoon chili powder; vegetable oil; ranch dressing (or salad dressing of your choice)

Servings: persons

1 cucumber
1/2 cup flour
1 egg
1 cup panko breadcrumbs, bread crumbs
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon cilantro
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon celery salt
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
vegetable oil
ranch dressing (or salad dressing of your choice)

1
Peel cucumber and cut into 1 inch chunks.
2
Put the flour in one bowl, the egg in a second (and scramble it with a fork a little), and put the panko, cheese, and spices in a wide shallow bowl.
3
Coat cucumber chunks in flour, then the scrambled egg, then rolls in the panko spice mixture to coat.
4
Place your coated chunks on a plate and put in the fridge for 20 minutes.
5
Put enough oil into a small frying pan to cover the bottom generously. Put on low to medium heat. I tested my oil with a bit of breadcrumbs to see when it was hot enough.
6
Fry your chunks in batches, making sure to brown each side. I found it easiest to turn them with some tongs.
7
Place finished nuggets on a plate with a paper towel to drain off any extra oil.
8
Stick toothpicks in them and put a little dressing in a bowl for dipping. Crispy, crunchy on the outside, juicy and warm on the inside.
