Time 9h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

1 cup canola oil
1 cup chopped yellow onions
Salt and pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 teaspoon chopped habanero peppers
1 cup vital wheat gluten flour
Mayo Base, recipe follows
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard
1/2 medium jalapeño, chopped
Salt and black pepper
Canola oil, for frying
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons Love Spice, recipe follows
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
3 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
1/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup unsweetened soy milk
1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • For the nuggets: In a large stock pot, add the canola oil, onions, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and cayenne and sauté over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the garlic and let stew, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
  • Add the tomato paste, cilantro, parsley and habaneros and let stew, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend well.
  • Place the flour in a large bowl, add the blended ingredients and mix. Place small chunks (about 1-inch wide) of the mixture on the prepared sheet pan and bake until a light crust forms on the outer edges, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • For the swamp sauce: Meanwhile, in a blender, add the Mayo Base, cilantro, garlic powder, mustard, jalapeños, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Blend, then set the sauce aside.
  • For frying: Heat about 2 cups oil in a 12-inch frying pan over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together 1 cup of the flour, 1/4 cup of the Love Spice, the hot sauce and 1/2 cup water. In a separate bowl, mix together the remaining 1 cup flour and the remaining 2 teaspoons Love Spice.
  • Dredge the nuggets and mushroom slices in the wet batter, then the dry batter. Add the battered pieces to the oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 1 1/2 minutes, turning once halfway through.
  • Place the fried nuggets and mushrooms on a plate. Add the parsley on top and serve with the swamp sauce on the side.
  • In a bowl, add the paprika, black pepper, salt and cayenne. Mix well.
  • In a blender, add the soy milk, olive oil, lemon juice and vinegar. Blend well and refrigerate overnight.

BRICE PALMER'S FRIED ALLIGATOR BITES



Brice Palmer's Fried Alligator Bites image

I love fried gator tail, and the local restaurant in my area, The Black Hammock, has some of the best I've eaten. Unfortunately, I don't have their recipe. We can actually purchase gator meat, fresh or frozen, at some fresh seafood houses so this is something I would love to try cooking myself. This recipe was taken from the Texas Cooperative Extension Alligator Cookbook and is posted there as a recipe from "Tony Chachere's Cajun Country Cookbook". It sounds very good, and all recipes I've ever seen are very similar with the only noted differences being in the batter and seasoning ingredients. I hope you enjoy this one! NOTE: Servings and yield are estimated. Prep time DOES NOT include refrigeration time. Posted for ZWT5.
