HAI MAI MANGIATO LA ZUCCA COSÌ? 🎃😋 #Zucca #RicetteVegetariane #CucinaItaliana #Parmigiano #Nocciole

In this short YouTube segment Orazio Vagnozzi (Speaker B) demonstrates a vegetarian recipe for cotolette di zucca (butternut‑squash cutlets). He explains how to select the seed‑free neck of a butternut squash, slice it into 1.5 cm pieces, brush with extra‑virgin olive oil and pre‑cook them in a fan‑oven at 190 °C for 15 minutes. After cooling, the skin is removed. The slices are then breaded in three stages – flour, lightly salted beaten eggs, and a breadcrumb mixture enriched with grated Parmigiano and toasted, chopped hazelnuts. The cutlets are fried in peanut oil at 160‑170 °C for about two minutes per side until golden, taking care not to overcrowd the pan, and then drained on absorbent paper. In the same oil, sage leaves are briefly fried (15‑20 seconds) and served alongside the cutlets. Speaker A remarks that the dish can function as an appetizer, a main course, or even an unconventional dessert because of the natural sweetness of the squash. The video points viewers to the “Orazio Food Experience” channel for the complete recipe and wine‑pairing suggestions.
