Fried herbs are perhaps unusual but they are a very particular and versatile snack or accompaniment.

Try fried parsley sprinkled over a bulgur wheat salad or fried basil with a cold tomato soup.

See the fried herb process step by step, following the photos order. 

1. Remove herb leaves one-by-one off their stems and, at the same time, heat deep-frying oil in a pan to 180°C.

   

2. Place herbs in the hot oil and stir softly with a strainer spoon.

   

3. As soon as bubbles stop forming around the herbs, remove with the strainer spoon and place on absorbent paper.
