Tip:

For fulfilling a crispy texture in your jalapeños it’s paramount to ensure that your frying oil is preheated to the accurate temperature. To do this use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the oil and aim for a temperature, between 350 375°F (175 190°C). Maintaining this heat will result in the jalapeños being cooked resulting in a crispy outer layer while keeping the insides tender. Additionally, make sure not to overcrowd the frying basket or pan as it will help maintain the desired temperature and ensure that the jalapeños fry evenly. You can savor these spicy pleasures as a snack or appetizer. For an extra burst of flavor and coolness consider serving them with a creamy dipping sauce.
