I just came up with the best party food and they were eaten in minutes. I combined all the great flavors of a jalapeno popper and stuff it into an olive and deep fry it. Ingredients:
3 cans of large black pitted olives (or you can use the green ones) |
2 jalapenos seeded and finely diced |
1 package of cream cheese |
1/2 cup of sharp cheddar cheese, finely grated |
1/4 cup of feta cheese |
1 clove of garlic finely minced |
1 egg, beaten |
1 cup of flour |
1 cup of bread crumbs |
enough olive oil to deep fry |
Directions:
1. In a bowl beat the cream cheese and feta until the consistency is smooth like frosting. Next add the sharp cheddar, garlic and jalapenos.
2. Next use a pastry bag to fill all the olives, or you can fill a zip lock bag with the mixture and snip off the end.
3. Heat your oil in a deep fryer or skillet deep enough to allow the olives to float in the oil. I usually toss a bit of flower into the skillet and when it sizzles the oil is ready.
4. Dredge the olives in flour then in the egg then roll in the bread crumbs. Drop them into the hot oil and fry for about 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon and let drain on a paper towel.
5. Serve them with ranch dip or whip up a quick spicy aoili sauce. Enjoy :)
