Preparation steps

1.

Rinse the zucchini flowers carefully, pat dry and remove the stamens. Rinse the tomatoes, pat dry and quarter. Cut the feta cheese into 8 pieces.

Working in batches, fold the egg whites into the batter then dip the blossoms in the batter twice. Deep fry the zucchini blossoms for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve the blossoms with the tomato salad.
