  • Mozzarella Onion Rings

    Mozzarella Onion Rings

    Ingredients:

      • 100g Mozzarella cheese
      • 1 onion
      • 50g flour
      • 100g bread crumbs
      • 2 eggs
    • Cooking oil

    Directions:

    Prepare the Cheese and Onion:

      1. Slice the Cheese: Slice 100g of mozzarella cheese into strips that are about 0.5 cm wide and long enough to fit inside the onion rings. Set aside.
      2. Slice the Onion: Peel and slice 1 onion into rings about 1.5-2 cm thick. Separate the onion rings and choose pairs with a 0.3-0.5 cm difference in diameter. This will allow you to sandwich the mozzarella strips between the rings.

    Assemble the Onion Rings:

    1. Stuff the Onion Rings: Place a mozzarella strip inside the gaps between each pair of onion rings. Ensure the cheese fits snugly and is completely enclosed by the onion rings to prevent it from leaking out during frying.

    Prepare the Coatings:

      1. Set Up Coating Stations: Prepare three bowls:
          • Bowl 1: 50g of flour.
          • Bowl 2: Crack 2 eggs into the bowl and whisk them well.

         

        • Bowl 3: 100g of bread crumbs.
      2. Coat the Onion Rings:
          • First, coat each stuffed onion ring in flour, ensuring all sides are covered.

         

        • Next, dip the floured onion ring into the whisked eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
        • Finally, coat the ring in bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. For extra crispiness and to prevent cheese leakage, repeat the egg and bread crumb coating step.

    300 grams of boneless chicken thigh, diced
    2 tablespoons of olive oil
    ½ teaspoon of sea salt
    ¼ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
    ½ teaspoon of granulated onion
    ⅔ cup of creamy mayonnaise
    3 stalks of celery, finely diced
    Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
    Instructions:

    Step 1: Begin by treating your chicken breasts and thighs with a delicate drizzle of olive oil. Sprinkle them with granulated onion, freshly cracked black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt.

    Step 2: Lay the seasoned chicken pieces in a baking dish, lightly cover them with aluminum foil, and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Ensure that the internal temperature of the thickest part of the breast reaches at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Step 3: Allow the chicken to cool for a minimum of ten minutes before transferring it to the refrigerator for at least an hour. Once adequately cooled, meticulously dice the breasts and thighs into petite 1/4-inch-long and 1/2-inch-wide pieces. Combine these chicken morsels with the diced celery and generous dollops of mayonnaise in a commodious mixing bowl, and stir until thoroughly amalgamated.

    Step 4: Ensure every ingredient embraces the harmony of flavors, then cover the bowl and let it rest in the refrigerator for a minimum of one to two hours, or even overnight. As time bestows its magic, the melding of flavors will elevate your chicken salad to a sublime level.

    Step 5: Before serving, taste your creation and make any necessary adjustments by adding a sprinkle of salt and a dash of freshly ground black pepper to suit your palate.

    Now, savor your culinary masterpiece and bask in the symphony of flavors!

    To make the skin crispy, coat the potatoes evenly with olive oil, being sure to cover all surfaces. Then, season with salt. Add a liberal amount of salt to season both sides.
    To ensure consistent frying and crispiness, preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for around 5 minutes.
    After the air fryer is heated, carefully stack the seasoned potatoes in the basket, making sure they don’t overlap, so air can circulate evenly. This is how you make Ezoic Air Fry Potatoes.
    Put the potatoes in an air fryer and cook for 35 to 40 minutes, turning them over halfway through. The potatoes are done when they are soft on the inside and slightly browned on the outside; the exact amount of time to cook them depends on their size and thickness.
    Toss and Top: After the potatoes are cooked to your liking, remove them from the air fryer and set aside to cool for a few minutes. To make the potatoes fluffy, cut them lengthwise and then fluff them inside with a fork.
