Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (9 ounce) packages frozen artichoke hearts

DEEP FRIED ARTICHOKE HEARTS

Categories     Vegetable     Appetizer

Yield 24 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 (15 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1 1/2 cups seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 cups oil for frying, or as needed
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or heavy deep skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Place seasoned bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip artichoke hearts in the egg mixture, then roll in bread crumbs until they are fully covered. Deep-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until deep golden brown. Remove to paper towels to drain excess oil. When all the pieces have been fried, place on a serving tray and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh artichoke hearts: Look for hearts that are firm and have a bright green color. Avoid hearts that are brown or wilted.
  • Soak the artichoke hearts in cold water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to remove any bitterness from the hearts.
  • Use a light breading for the artichoke hearts. A heavy breading will make the hearts soggy.
  • Fry the artichoke hearts in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the hearts will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the artichoke hearts with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include ranch dressing, marinara sauce, or tzatziki sauce.

Conclusion:

Deep-fried artichoke hearts are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a side dish. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy this tasty treat at home.
