Method

Preparation of Filling

1

Prepare the Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the sweet sausage, crumbled blue cheese, and orange honey. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Stuffing Olives

2

Stuff the Olives

Using a small spoon or piping bag, carefully stuff each pitted olive with the sausage and cheese mixture. Ensure they are filled generously but not overflowing.

Breading Setup

3

Prepare for Breading

Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with salt and black pepper.

Breading Olives

4

Bread the Stuffed Olives

Take each stuffed olive, roll it in flour, dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Ensure each olive is evenly coated.

Frying

5

Heat the Oil

In a large frying pan or deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

6

Fry the Olives

Carefully add the breaded olives to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

7

Drain and Serve

Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried olives and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
