Fried Capers (Little Flowers)
- Ready In:
- 4mins
- Ingredients:
- 3
- Yields:
-
4 salad garnishes
ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup capers, drained and patted dry (less or more, depending on how many you want)
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- kosher salt or sea salt
directions
- Heat oil to 365-75* F in a medium saucepan.
- If you haven't a thermometer, this is hot but definitely not smoking.
- Lower the capers, (I use a Chinese deep frying wire utensil) a few at a time, into the oil and fry until they suddenly pop open and look like little flower buds.
- Let them cook for a couple of seconds, remove, and drain on paper towels.
- Salt, sparingly, since they are salty already.
- Serve.
