    2. Mix the ingredients with a whisk until a smooth paste is obtained.
    3. Dip the flowers in the baking mix and coat well.
    4. Fry, in a skillet or deep fryer, a few flowers at a time in very hot oil. When the fritters are golden brown on both sides, place them on absorbent paper.

    Prosciutto stuffing

    1. Wrap the cheese stick and the basil leaf in the prosciutto.
    2. Insert inside the flower.
    3. Dip the flowers in a beaten egg (or in batter) and fry in the pan.

    Cheese stuffing

    1. Sauté the onions and zucchini in the pan. Salt and pepper.
    2. Combine cooked vegetables and cheese.
    3. Insert a small ball of the mixture inside each flower.
    4. Dip the flowers in a beaten egg (or in batter) and fry in the pan.
