👨‍🍳 Method

For the Crispy Coating

  1. 1
    Beat the eggs in a wide bowl.
    Bowl
    💡Work with one "dry" hand for the dry coating and one "wet" hand for the egg, so your fingers don't get caked in layers of coating.
  2. 2
    On another flat plate, mix the crumbs with the Parmesan, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt and black pepper.

To assemble

  1. 3
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 4
    Pass each piece through the breading stations, in order, and press well so the coating sticks.
    💡A wet vegetable sheds its coating and spatters in the oil. Dry well after cooking or salting, before the flour.
  3. 5
    Arrange on a baking sheet, drizzle the oil on top and bake 25–30 minutes, turning halfway, until the coating is golden and crisp.

    Bowl
  5. 7
