Kids Favorite Easy Cheesy ‘Busketti’
Description
Fried deviled eggs offer a tantalizing twist on the classic appetizer, combining the creamy richness of traditional deviled eggs with a delightful crunch. The eggs, hard-boiled to perfection and halved, are first coated in a seasoned flour mixture, then dipped in beaten egg and finally encased in a crispy breadcrumb coating before being gently fried to golden perfection. The result is a harmonious blend of textures, with the creamy filling contrasting beautifully against the crispy exterior. Each bite reveals a burst of flavor, as the tangy mustard, zesty mayo, and hint of paprika in the deviled egg filling harmonize with the crunchy coating. Whether served as an elegant starter for a dinner party or as a playful twist on a picnic classic, fried deviled eggs are sure to delight the palate and leave guests craving more.Ingredient
Instructions
-
Gather all ingredients.
-
Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C) over medium-high.
-
While oil is heating, cut hard-cooked eggs in half lengthwise, carefully remove yolks, and place in a small bowl. Using a fork, mash together yolks, mayonnaise, relish, Dijon, black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt until smooth and combined. Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top plastic bag. Set aside until ready to use.
-
Place flour in a small bowl. In another bowl, place beaten eggs. In a third bowl, mix together panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, cayenne, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Dredge each egg white half in flour, gently shaking to remove excess flour before dipping it in the beaten eggs. Lift egg white half from beaten egg and allow it to drip until excess liquid has fallen off. Finally, dredge in panko bread crumb mixture. Set aside on a clean plate
-
Working in 2 batches, fry coated egg whites in hot oil until golden brown, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, adjusting heat as needed to maintain at least 360 degrees F (180 degrees C). Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
-
Pipe egg yolk mixture evenly (about 1 tablespoon each) into center divet in fried eggs. Garnish with chives and paprika. Serve warm with hot sauce.
