Gluten-Free Breadfruit Fries with Spicy Mayo

Ingredients

• 1 medium Breadfruit
• 2 cups Coconut Oil
• 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Hot Sauce
• 1 teaspoon Lime Juice
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Carefully peel the 1 medium breadfruit. Using a knife, carefully core the breadfruit, then cut it into fry shapes, aiming for pieces approximately 1/2-inch thick and 3-4 inches long.
2. 2Place a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep skillet (at least 10 inches wide) on your stove. Add the 2 cups of coconut oil to the pot and heat it over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of breadfruit into it; it should sizzle immediately.
3. 3Carefully add a single layer of the cut breadfruit fries to the hot oil, ensuring the pot is not overcrowded. Fry this batch for 5-7 minutes, turning the fries occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
4. 4Using a slotted spoon or spider, carefully remove the fried breadfruit from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Immediately sprinkle the hot fries with a portion of the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
5. 5Repeat Step 3 and Step 4 for all remaining breadfruit, adding a single layer to the hot oil, frying for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then draining and seasoning each batch immediately with the remaining salt and pepper.
6. 6In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of hot sauce, and 1 teaspoon of lime juice. Stir well with a spoon or whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
7. 7Arrange the crispy breadfruit fries on a serving platter. Serve them immediately with the spicy mayonnaise on the side for dipping.
