How to Make Easy Fried Pickles Recipe
In a shallow bowl or a large plate, mix together the flour and spices.
Add the water and hot sauce and stir together with the dry ingredients until well combined. Drain the juice from the pickles and dry the pickles with paper towels. Dip the pickles in small batches into the batter and coat well on all sides.
Deep fry the pickles in 2 inches of oil heated to 375ºF in a large pot. Fry the pickles on each side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Remove them from the hot oil and drain off the excess oil on paper towels while you move on to frying the next batch of pickles.
