Summary: Have you had a deep fried pickle? It’s amazing! With the rise of food trucks and burger places, Australia is getting a taste of the USA. I happen to love pickles in general, so a deep fried pickle is just heaven to me. Mr Ask is the deep fry king! He is always finding creative things fry up. He has made fried pickles before but this is the perfected recipe. The crumbing ratio on sliced pickles is fantastic but if you find slices too fiddly, spears are nice too. We have an electric deep fryer with solid vegetable oil and it is really handy but if you are going to use a pot of oil, check out these safety tips.
