Ingredients
- 1 tbsp. crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- 1 tbsp. whole-milk ricotta cheese
- 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp. grated lemon zest
- 10 large pitted green olives
- 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/4 c. plain breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- vegetable oil for frying
Directions
-
- Step 1In a small bowl, mash gorgonzola, ricotta, thyme, and lemon zest with a fork until no lumps of gorgonzola remain. Spoon mixture into a small pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch-round plain tip (or spoon into a plastic 1-quart food storage bag; gather mixture into one corner of the bag and snip off a small opening). Pipe cheese mixture into each olive.
- Step 2Put flour and bread-crumbs on separate pieces of waxed paper. Lightly beat egg in a small bowl. Dredge each olive in flour, then coat in egg; remove olive from egg with a fork, letting excess drip off, then roll in breadcrumbs to coat.
- Step 3Heat 1-1/2 cups of oil in a heavy-bottomed 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, until a deep-frying thermometer registers 350°F. (If you don’t have a thermometer, toss in a cube of bread when you start heating the oil; it will brown in about 3 minutes–when it does, the oil is ready.) Fry olives for 30 to 45 seconds each, until golden brown. Drain olives on paper towels. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
