Instructions:

1️⃣ Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh yellow corn, mayo, shredded mozzarella, chopped basil, green onions, honey, tamari or soy sauce, and a pinch of chili flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. This mixture will be the delicious filling for your breadsticks. 🌽πŸ₯„πŸ§€πŸŒΏπŸ§…πŸ―🍢🌢️

2️⃣ Assemble the Breadsticks: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean, flat surface. Place about 1 rounded teaspoon of the zucchini mixture onto the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with a little water, then fold it over the filling to create a triangle. Press the edges together to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining filling and wrappers. πŸ₯ŸπŸ’§

3️⃣ Fry the Breadsticks: In a large skillet, heat 1-2 inches of avocado oil over medium heat. To test if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of wonton wrapper into the oilβ€”it should sizzle immediately. Carefully add a few wontons at a time into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer the fried wontons to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. 🍳🟑

4️⃣ Make the Sesame Ginger Soy Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together tamari or soy sauce, rice vinegar, hot chili oil, grated ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, and chopped green onions or chives. This sauce adds a savory, umami-packed flavor to your zucchini breadsticks. πŸΆπŸšπŸŒΆοΈπŸ«šπŸ§„πŸŒ°πŸŒ±
