Chayote must be cooked by boiling, then coated with egg and breadcrumbs or batter. The results will be a little different but equally good.<br>These recipes can be served as a finger food, appetizer or as a side dish.<br>I also invite you to try &#8220;Meat Stuffed Chayote&#8221; recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><br>\u2022 cooked chayote<br>\u2022 frying oil<br>For the coating:<br>\u2022 eggs<br>\u2022 breadcrumbs<br>\u2022 salt<br><strong>For the batter:<\/strong><br>1 large egg<br>\u2022 75 g all purpose flour<br>\u2022 50 ml milk, approximately<br>\u2022 salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Preparation method<\/strong><br><strong>How to cook chayote:<\/strong><br>Peel, cut the chayotes in half lengthwise, remove and discard oval seed, under cold tap water (chayote exude a sticky liquid when peeled). Cook them in a pot of boiling salted water until tender. It takes 15-30 minutes. Drain and let cool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Come cucinare il chayote (Chuchu)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/szJNx6Gsdc0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the coating:<\/strong><br>Cut chayote into thick slices. Coat them first with the beaten egg (with a pinch of salt) and then with the breadcrumbs. If you like a thick crust you can flour before dipping in the beaten egg and then into breadcrumbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the batter:<\/strong><br>In a bowl mix egg, salt and flour, add the milk a little at a time, stirring constantly, until you have a thick yogurt consistency. Slice each half chayote lengthwise into long strips and dip into the batter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Deep-frying:<\/strong><br>Deep fry in the hot oil until golden brown and crispy. To check the temperature put a toothpick into the oil: if bubbles start to form around the wood and float up, your oil is hot enough. Place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serve accompanied with white rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><em>Posted on: 26 November 2014<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE VIDEO Chayote is a very common vegetable in Brazil, usually considered an ingredient &#8220;less noble&#8221;.
