Thread: Deep Fried Artichoke hearts

A restuarant near us Sam's Joint - has these lightly - almost no breading at all on artichoke hearts - then deep fried served with melted butter and grated parmesan cheese. Any ideas of a light breading? I want to try making this - do you think panko would work?

oops didn't read it correctly

I am not sure this is what you are looking for, but I found it on All Recipes. I think Panko would be the perfect bread crumb to use.

Original Recipe Yield 24 servings

Ingredients

* 2 eggs
* 1/2 cup milk
* 1 (15 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
* 1 1/2 cups seasoned dry bread crumbs
* 2 cups oil for frying, or as needed
* 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping

Directions

1. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or heavy deep skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Place seasoned bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Dip artichoke hearts in the egg mixture, then roll in bread crumbs until they are fully covered.
3. Deep-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until deep golden brown. Remove to paper towels to drain excess oil. When all the pieces have been fried, place on a serving tray and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

That sound like it - Thank you.

I was in Williams Sonma and talked to the lady there - she said she didin't think you could make these with canned artichoke hearts - but your receipe sounds like it will work - I think I'm going to try these this weekend.
