FAQ:
Can I freeze these sticks before cooking?
Yes, freeze them on a tray before coating or after coating and refrigerate in a sealed bag. Cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
What if I don’t have fresh spinach?
Frozen spinach works too—just thaw and squeeze out excess water before mixing.
Is baking or frying better?
Baking is healthier and less messy, while frying offers extra crispiness.
