To Cook Your Monte Cristo Sandwiches:
- Heat 3 cups of vegetable oil in a dutch oven or frying pot. While oil heats, prepare funnel cake batter according to directions on package.
- Using tongs, dip sandwich into funnel cake batter. Turn until sandwich is fully coated in batter, then gently place in oil.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes until the outside of sandwich is a light golden brown. Remove from oil and set on a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Repeat with all sandwiches.
To Make the Strawberry Habanero Jam:
- Combine strawberry jam, fresh strawberries, orange bell pepper, and habanero pepper in a food processor or blender. Chop until all ingredients are well incorporated and sauce is a smooth consistency with no large chunks.
