Big Guy 1,412 Posted January 4, 2022 If I don't die watching a Cowboy Game or by the NWO, I'll probably die from Fried Food...............ok, maybe Ice Cream. So other than Fries, what are your faves? I'm personally partial to Jalapeno Poppers dipped in Mae Ploy's Sweet Chilly Sauce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apps are like cheese sticks or fried jalapenos or fired shrimp, artichoke dip, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bier Meister 1,710 Posted January 4, 2022 so broad for me, but: basic sides: fries, onion rings, baked beans not so basic sides: I used to make a truffled roesti (swiss potato pancake) as a side to several of my entrees. I would use other flavors based on the dish. Sometimes just seared on the flat top. but much better when I fried it. croquettes crab cakes, hushpuppies, wontons, egg rolls, rangoon, rolled tacos (taquitos) and flautas, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
