HOW TO MAKE OLD BAY-SEASONED CRISPY BREADED ZUCCHINI SPIRALS
Step 1: Heat the oil in a large saucepan over 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
Step 2: Whisk the egg and milk in a medium mixing bowl until well mixed and place in a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag.
Step 3: Combine the cornstarch and flour in a separate medium mixing bowl until incorporated and place in a different resealable bag.
Step 4: Add the zucchini spirals into the milk and egg mixture, seal the bag, and evenly coat.
Step 5: Once the zucchini spirals coated in milk mixture, transfer them into the flour mixture. Seal and shake until fully coated.
Step 6: Shake off the excess flour and fry the zucchini spirals into the hot oil for about 2 to 4 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 7: Grab a clean plate and line with paper towels.
Step 8: Transfer the fried zucchini spirals on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
