  • olive oil for frying
  • 1 10 ounce jar Garlic Stuffed Olives, drained
  • 1 egg beaten

    Cup of Yum
  1. Make the garlic aioli dipping sauce by mixing all the ingredients together and then chill the sauce in the refrigerator before serving.
  2. Pour enough olive oil into a saucepan to reach a depth of 2 inches. Heat over medium-high until the oil reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Place the egg in a small bowl and beat with a fork or whisk. Add the olives and coat well.
  4. Pour the bread crumbs into a shallow dish. Transfer the egg-soaked olives to the plate and evenly coat in bread crumbs.
  5. Fry the olives in the pre-heated oil in three batches until golden brown, about 45 seconds. Drain on a paper towel. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Egg Wash: If you are a Vegan or have an egg-free diet, you can use a Vegan egg substitute or olive oil instead of the egg.
