EASY SPICY FRIED PICKLES WITH GARLIC MAYONNAISE
Ok ... So I was watching food network with a friend tonight and they had on "Unwrapped" ... fried pickles. Well, it reminded me of my best friend whose Mom showed me how to make fried pickles a few years back, and I love them. She used small round slices of dill pickles, Italian bread crumbs (but I changed to panko), and then a garlic spicy aioli and they were amazing. Rather than fries, try a few of these with your bratwurst or with a burger and what a nice change. Just something a bit different. Well I haven't made them in over a year and it made me realize what a nice recipe it was and how much I missed making them. They are so easy, but so good and the spicy mayo really makes the dish.

Steps:
- Aioli -- just mix the mayonnaise, garlic and lemon and put in a small bowl and cover and refrigerate.
- Pickles -- In a large baggie I add the flour, salt, black pepper and cayenne and mix well. Then add in the pickles (Note: I like to dry off the pickles first -- you don't want them wet) and lightly toss. Make sure to dust off most of the flour. Set on a plate for Part II.
- Pickles Part II -- Grind the panko crumbs in a small food processor until you have a fine crumb mixture. Now in 2 bowls add the egg to one bowl and the panko crumbs to the other one. Dredge the pickles already dusted in flour in the egg and then into the panko crumbs to coat well and set on a plate ready to be fried.
- Pickles Part III -- In a large frying pan heat up the oil to 350 degrees or medium high heat. Now add 10 or so pickles at a time and fry until golden brown on each side. They only take a few minutes per side. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to let drain.
- Serve warm with the garlic aioli dip. A great change from fries with ketchup.
