Fresh Garden Pickles With Aioli Recipes

FRESH GARDEN PICKLES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, toss cucumbers with salt to coat, then cover with ice cubes and refrigerate. After 1 to 2 hours, drain, rinse thoroughly and strain to remove excess water. Set aside.
• In a saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus, carrots, peppers, onions and garlic and saute for 3 minutes or until the vegetables are just beginning to soften. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the cucumbers, oregano, thyme and peppercorns and gently toss to combine.
• Return the saute pan to medium heat and add the vinegars, sugar, fennel seeds and bay leaves. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Pour the syrup over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat.
• Cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate. These are best eaten a few days after they have been made, but can be eaten after chilling for a few hours.

EASY SPICY FRIED PICKLES WITH GARLIC MAYONNAISE

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.
