Deep-Fried Pickles is a great part of an Appetizer or Hors d'Oeuvre table. Being that I am Polish I use the sliced Polish Dills. Yum! Also try, Hamberger sliced Dills. Make plenty as they will be gone in a flash!

Very easy and delicious; I lived in the south for 8 years and miss the food. These pickles are as good as any I've had in a southern restaurant!
