Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Small pumpkins

  • 140 g Flour, Wheat, bread flour

  • 1 spoon Koruzni škrob

  • 1 teaspoon Salt, table

  • 0.25 teaspoons Spices, pepper, black

  • pieces Oil, plant, sunflower

Steps

  1. Wash the pumpkins and cut off both ends. Using a sharp knife, slice them into very thin rings (approximately 2 mm).

  2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper with a fork. Lightly coat the pumpkin rings on both sides, shake off excess, and place them on a plate.

  3. Heat oil in a deep pan with a thick bottom. The oil layer should be at least 3 cm high. The oil is hot enough when bubbles start to form around the handle of a wooden spoon dipped into the oil. Once the oil is hot, gradually fry the pumpkin rings until golden brown, which takes about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fried pumpkin chips from the oil with a slotted spoon. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels.

  4. Allow the fried pumpkin rings to cool slightly and drain, then transfer them to a bowl and serve.
