Fried olives
Знадоби
- 2 cups medium-large green olives, pitted- about 1/2 cup smoked mozarella bits (about 1/4"x1 / 2" in size or as big a piece you can fit into the whole of the olive)
- about 1/2 cup flour
- about 1/2 cup milk
- about 1 cup fine breadcrumbs or Panko (I'd recommend 2 pieces of white sandwich bread ground finely in the mini-food processor)
- 1 toothpick
- oil for frying
Як готувати
- Heat oil in a fryer or a large saucepan with about 3 inches of oil to 370 degrees.- Stuff each olive with a piece of mozarella.
- Place flour, milk and breadcrumbs in 3 seperate small bowls.
- Using a toothpick, coat olive in flour. Tap off the excess flour. Dip olive in the milk. Then, coat olive thoroughly in the breadcrumbs. Set on a plate and repeat for remaining olives.
- Dip a flat sieve in the hot oil so that the breadcrumbs will not stick to it. Transfer about 1/3 of the olives to the hot oil using the sieve and fry for about 30-45 seconds. Drain on a plate covered with a paper towel. Repeat for remaining olives. Serve hot.
- Serves 4.
