Fried Stuffed Olives

20 olives Large green olives

3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Smoked chili sausage

2 tbs Yuzu juice

3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Cream cheese

1 cup Flour

1 large Egg

1 cup Breadcrumbs

1 tsp Celtic sea salt

1 tsp black pepper

2 1/8 cup (500 ml) Oil for frying

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Filling

In a bowl, combine the smoked chili sausage (finely chopped), cream cheese, and yuzu juice. Mix until well combined and set aside.

Stuff the Olives

Using a small spoon or a piping bag, carefully stuff each olive with the sausage and cream cheese mixture.

Prepare for Frying

Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for the beaten egg, and one for breadcrumbs mixed with salt and black pepper.

Bread the Olives

Dip each stuffed olive into the flour, then into the egg, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture.

Fry the Olives

In a deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded olives and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serve

Serve the fried stuffed olives warm, paired with a dipping sauce of your choice.
