Categories     brunch, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield Snacks for 6 to 8 people

Number Of Ingredients 8

About 36 large garlic cloves, peeled
1 cup pitted green olives, like Manzanilla or Picholine
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt, more for sprinkling
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 eggs
1 cup fresh bread crumbs or panko
Oil for deep-frying

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.

I love the combination of sweet and savory in this dish. The garlic cloves are crispy and flavorful, while the green olives add a nice briny flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my garlic cloves didn't come out as crispy as I would have liked.

The garlic cloves were a little too crispy for my taste, but the green olives were perfect.
