Alligator Nuggets

Typical meat at a restaurant includes beef, ham, and pork. Offer something a little more exotic like an alligator nugget. With a saltier taste, the deep fried nugget has a lot of flavor and is great to combine with dipping sauces like barbecue. Chefs like Paula Deen have actually promoted the recipe and alligator meat is easy to order from all around the world.

Deep Fried Corn on the Cob

Turn a traditional side meal into something with much more flavor and crunch. Using wooden skewers, the corn is placed directly into the deep fryer after it has a light beer batter coated over it. The corn retains it's juicy flavors while providing the crunch on the outer layers. This is an ideal menu item during the summer season.

Mac & Cheese Balls

A scoop of mac & cheese is lightly coated in a bread crumb batter and then fried for just a couple of minutes. The result are small little balls that are filled with flavor. It's also a good idea to add some extra flavor and spice to the balls with bacon or red peppers.

Soda

It may sound unusual, but the ingredients in basic colas like Coke and Pepsi offer a nice kick to the deep fryer. Deep fried soda are formed into balls when mixed with sugar, flour, baking powder, and eggs. The doughy formation keeps the flavor and turns the treat into a unique dessert that you can present to patrons.

Pickles

This is a new concept that is slowly catching on. Both small slices and full pickles are being covered in a batter and deep fried all around the world. The crunch paired with the juicy pickle creates a great combination. Along with being a side dish, the pickles can be topped on a variety of burgers and sandwiches.

Bananas

The yellow fruit is known for being dipped and frozen, but bananas also taste great when they are deep fried. The flour and sugar coating turns the fruit into a delicious dessert. After they are fried, additional ingredients like whipped cream, sprinkles, or powdered sugar make them taste even better.

Zucchini Fries

Give guests a slightly healthier alternative than typical potato fries. The freshness of zucchini is captured well when they are deep fried in a light batter. The food has a crunch and texture that many people will enjoy.

Tortellini

Spice up any Italian dishes on your menu with deep fried Tortellini. Once the pasta is fully cooked, it can be coated and fried to add some extra crunch. Much like mozzarella sticks, the tortellini is great with marinara sauce.

Deep Fried Ice Cream

Another dessert item, deep fried ice cream provide both the hot crispiness of the deep fryer with a cooling sensation in the form of ice cream. The key to making this recipe a success is speed. The ice cream must be dipped in batter, dropped in the deep fryer, and fully cooked in a matter of minutes. Once learned, it can become a great dessert item on any menu.
