👨🍳 Инструкции

Prepare the pacaya flowers by blanching them in boiling water for about 5-7 minutes to soften and remove any bitterness. Drain and let them cool.

In a bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella cheese with sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 3
Carefully open the pacaya flowers and stuff them with the cheese mixture.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the flour until smooth. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture to create a light batter.

Lightly dredge the stuffed pacayas in a bit of flour, then dip them into the egg batter, ensuring they are fully coated.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Carefully place the battered pacayas into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

While the pacayas are frying, prepare a simple tomato sauce by blending tomatoes, onion, and garlic. Simmer in a small saucepan until slightly thickened.
