Ingredients
- 1 cup Gorgonzola cheese crumbled
- 1/4 cup cream cheese softened
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 24 large green olives pitted
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the Gorgonzola cheese, cream cheese, and black pepper until well combined.
- Stuff each olive with a small amount of the cheese mixture, making sure not to overfill.
- Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
- Roll each stuffed olive in the flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it in breadcrumbs. Make sure to press the breadcrumbs onto the olives to help them adhere.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350°F (180°C).
- Carefully drop the olives into the hot oil in batches and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Be cautious as the cheese may ooze out a bit.
- Remove the fried olives with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the fried olives stuffed with Gorgonzola warm and enjoy!
