1
Prepare the Pickles
Pat the dill pickle spears dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
2
Wrap with Cheese
Take a slice of Havarti cheese and wrap it around each dill pickle spear, ensuring it's fully covered.
3
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and bread crumbs in the third.
4
Bread the Cheese-Wrapped Pickles
Dip each wrapped pickle spear first in flour, then in the egg, and finally coat with bread crumbs. Make sure they are well-coated.
5
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).
6
Fry the Pickles
Carefully add the breaded pickle spears to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
7
Drain and Season
Remove the fried pickles from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
8
Serve
Serve the fried cheesy pickles hot with a side of Sriracha sauce for dipping.
