Fried Dill Pickles

Yes, it sounds gross, but fried dills are actually delicious and easy to make. I found this Channukkah recipe on msn.com

3 cups canola oil
2 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoons fresh-ground pepper
3 large full-sour dill pickles, cut into spears


Add oil to a heavy 9-inch skillet, attach a deep-fry thermometer, and heat oil over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
Whisk the eggs in a bowl and set aside. Combine the flour, pepper, and cayenne in a shallow dish and set aside.
Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set aside. Dip pickles in egg, shake off excess, and dredge in the flour mixture. Add pickles to the oil a few at a time so they can float freely.
Fry the spears until golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet to drain slightly and serve immediately.
