Hot Poppers Ingredients

Method

Hot Poppers Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapeños

    Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. This will reduce the heat level.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with chopped smoked salmon until well combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Jalapeños

    Spoon the cream cheese and smoked salmon mixture into each jalapeño half.

  4. 4

    Wrap in Soy Paper

    Take a sheet of soy paper and wrap it around each stuffed jalapeño, securing the filling inside.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Tempura Batter

    Follow the instructions on the tempura batter mix to prepare the batter. Dip each wrapped jalapeño into the tempura batter.

  6. 6

    Fry the Poppers

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan. Once hot, carefully drop the battered jalapeños into the oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the poppers from the oil and drain on paper towels. Drizzle with sriracha sauce and serve hot.
