Deep Fried Garlic Cloves And Green Olives Recipes

Steps:

• Put garlic cloves in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 1 minute. Drain and repeat with fresh water. Drain and repeat once more, simmering about 5 minutes or until soft, testing often. Gently lift garlic cloves out of pan and drain on paper towels until cool. Meanwhile, place olives on paper towels to drain.
• When ready to cook, mix flour, salt and pepper on a plate. In a bowl, beat eggs. Spread bread crumbs on another plate. In a heavy pot, heat 3 inches of oil to 375 degrees: when hot enough, a chunk of bread will fry in 30 seconds.
• Working in batches, roll garlic cloves and olives in seasoned flour, then in beaten eggs, then in bread crumbs. Repeat process and drop into oil. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle lightly with salt. Let oil come back to 375 degrees between batches. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Into a small, tall, glass or ceramic oven bowl, place a cup or more of peeled garlic cloves. Cut off the little 'button' stem end of the clove.
• Cover garlic with a mild olive oil. Cover bowl with foil and poke several vent holes.
• Put in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or til cloves are slightly golden and can be pierced with a fork but not mushy.
• Remove from oven and when cool enough to handle, pour the oil into a carafe (strain if desired); and save the cloves in a glass jar with a lid. I use a cleaned-out clam juice bottle for the oil.

Steps:

• Separate bulbs and peel garlic.
• Drop cloves into boiling water and when boiling resumes, blanch for about 3-4 minutes. The longer the cloves cook the milder their flavor, but don't overcook or they will be mushy.
• Drain and pour cold water over to cool.
• Meanwhile, prepare batter by combining biscuit mix, egg, beer, parsley and salt.
• Heat vegetable oil in deep pot or fry cooker.
• Dip each cooked clove of garlic into batter and fry until golden brown in color.
• Remove from oil and drain on paper towel.
• Serve Hot.

Steps:

• Place 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in pan with whole garlic cloves (in cold oil) heat to frying temperature (this is about 180°C).
• In 3 separate bowls place flour in one, eggs and milk whisked, and panko breadcrumbs. Salt and pepper each.
• Slice zucchini and cut mozzarella in nice bite sized chunks.
• Bread zucchini, mozzarella and olives by coating in flour, then egg wash then breadcrumbs. (My tip is to use a dry hand and a wet hand, this will keep you from getting big blobs of flour and breadcrumbs on your fingers! I will put more detailed instructions on how I do this below).
• Fry breaded items until lightly golden.
• Serve with a nice sprinkling of sea salt, fresh basil and a squeeze of lemon juice!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together oil, garlic and oregano.
• Add olives and toss to coat.
• Cover and chill at least 4 hours or as long as two weeks.
