Notes

  • Tip 1: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll be good for up to 3 days, but they’re best enjoyed fresh!
  • Tip 2: While I don’t recommend freezing these, if you do, fry them first, then freeze them. You can reheat them in the oven before serving for a crispy texture.
  • Tip 3: Serve these delightful treats with a side of spicy dipping sauce or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • Tip 4: Use a colorful platter to display your Deep Fried Deviled Eggs. A sprinkle of herbs or microgreens on top adds a beautiful touch.
  • Tip 5: Choose oils with a high smoke point, like canola or peanut oil, for deep frying. This prevents burning and gives a better flavor.
