Jalapeno cheddar poppers at Papa Johns?!!
« on: March 04, 2008, 03:03:04 PM »
ok, so in my quest to decide in pizza the other night, I came across papa johns website which  much to my surprise does the jalapeno popper things like back home did at a lot of fast food places. I have to say I was so pleasantly surprised to see these!
But, has anyone tried them? I know its an american company so how different can they be eh?

You can actually get pretty good poppers in the refridgerated and frozen section of Sainsburys. It saves you the hassle of ordering a pizza to get them....that is if you don't want to  ;D

Actually it's both. I'm not sure if the refridgerated ones are still out in the Winter but they are the cheddar and the cream cheese ones. They are near the cole slaw and salad kind of stuff and the others are in the frozen section with party appetisers and stuff. Those are the best actually :)

Just went to Sainsburys to check. They don't have the refridgerated ones only the frozen (which are better anyway) and they are there and 2 for £3.00  :)

All Papa John food is the same as in the US. They had one here in Leeds and then shut down. My favourite pizza place of all time. I won't lie, I mourned.

I was so disappointed when we went to the one in Oxford.  Their pizza menu is really different from the one I was used to in the US; so sad since I'd do just about anything for a Pappa John's Chicken Alfredo Pizza...

wow these are my favourite, no idea Sainsburys had them!! ASDA and Tesco had them for Christmas (ASDA's were rubbish lol) and I tried to make them myself but failed as the breading came off when I fried them and it was pretty gross. I am away tomorrow to check out Sainsburys!! And might have to order from Papa Johns' too :D

hee hee, here it is


INGREDIENTS
24 pickled jalapeno peppers
455 g Cheddar cheese
70 g yellow cornmeal
60 g unbleached all-purpose flour
6 g salt
2 eggs, beaten
950 ml corn oil for frying


Note: you may find polenta a lot easier than true cornmeal. Its the same thing though.

DIRECTIONS
Cut a short slit into each jalapeno pepper. Remove as many seeds as possible. Slice Cheddar cheese into approximately 1/4 inch by 1 inch strips. Stuff each jalapeno with a Cheddar cheese strip.
Place beaten eggs in a small bowl.
In a small dish, mix yellow cornmeal, flour and salt.
One at a time, dip jalapenos in the eggs. Roll in the yellow cornmeal mixture until well coated. Arrange on a metal rack, and allow them to sit approximately 30 minutes.
Heat corn oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In small batches, using a slotted spoon, lower peppers into the heated oil, and fry until crisp and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
