Easy Spicy Fried Pickles With Garlic Mayonnaise Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a smallish saucepan and while it's left to heat up cut the thawed squid into 1/2-inch rings.
• Put the cornstarch, semolina and seasoning into a plastic freezer bag. Add the squid rings and tentacles and then toss to coat.
• When the oil is hot enough, which is when it sizzles up fiercely when you drop in a small cube of bread, fry the squid in batches to get the most golden crunchiness.
• A couple of minutes per batch is all you should need.
• Mince the garlic into the mayonnaise to serve alongside the fried squid.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat.
• Pat the pickle slices dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, cayenne pepper, black pepper and garlic powder. Dip pickle slices into the egg, and then coat with the bread crumb mixture.
• Fry the pickles in the hot oil, until golden brown on each side, turning once. Transfer to paper towels, and serve hot with Ranch dressing.

Steps:

• Immerse pimiento or red pepper in a pan of boiling water and boil 2 minutes. (Skip this step if used the roasted red peppers in a jar).
• Remove from water with a slotted spoon.
• Reserve.
• While motor is running, add garlic cloves to a food processor fitted with the steel blade.
• Process until pureed.
• Add pimiento or red pepper and process until blended.
• Add egg yolks and blend.
• With blades turning, slowly pour in olive oil in a fine steady stream until sauce is thick and smooth and all oil is added.
• Add salt, pepper and cayenne.
• Taste for seasoning.
• Refrigerate in a tightly covered container until ready to use.
• Serve cold.

Steps:

• Aioli -- just mix the mayonnaise, garlic and lemon and put in a small bowl and cover and refrigerate.
• Pickles -- In a large baggie I add the flour, salt, black pepper and cayenne and mix well. Then add in the pickles (Note: I like to dry off the pickles first -- you don't want them wet) and lightly toss. Make sure to dust off most of the flour. Set on a plate for Part II.
• Pickles Part II -- Grind the panko crumbs in a small food processor until you have a fine crumb mixture. Now in 2 bowls add the egg to one bowl and the panko crumbs to the other one. Dredge the pickles already dusted in flour in the egg and then into the panko crumbs to coat well and set on a plate ready to be fried.
• Pickles Part III -- In a large frying pan heat up the oil to 350 degrees or medium high heat. Now add 10 or so pickles at a time and fry until golden brown on each side. They only take a few minutes per side. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to let drain.
• Serve warm with the garlic aioli dip. A great change from fries with ketchup.
