Ingredients:
1 1/4 -inch-thick slice red onion, finely diced |
3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard |
11/2 tablespoons yellow mustard |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
kosher salt |
vegetable oil, for frying |
6 large dill pickles, sliced diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick rounds |
2 cups salted mini pretzels |
2 large eggs |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
celery salt, for sprinkling (optional) |
Directions:
1. Make the sauce: Mix the onion, both mustards, the mayonnaise, paprika, garlic powder and salt to taste in a bowl. Set the sauce aside. 2. Make the chips: Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Gently pat the pickle slices dry with a paper towel. 3. Put the pretzels in a large resealable plastic bag and crush into coarse crumbs using a rolling pin or heavy pan; transfer to a plate. Whisk the eggs in a shallow bowl and put the flour in another bowl. Dredge the pickle slices in the flour, shaking off any excess; dip in the beaten eggs, then dip in the pretzel crumbs, turning to coat. Working in batches, fry the pickles until golden and crisp, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with celery salt, if desired. Serve warm with the mustard sauce. 4.
