     Happy Hanukkah continued! What a great holiday! Yesterday<\/a>, I promised to share more posts about frying random foods, because Hannukah is about oil and what not. Mac & cheese was mentioned, and I’m not one to go back on my word. Well, I fried mac & cheese today. I’m going to tell you how to do it, but I’m not sure whether I recommend you actually follow suit. It was weird. Some of you may have been lucky enough to try the fried mac & cheese burger at Portland’s White Owl Social Club before it left the menu, but I was silly and I ordered something else the one time I was there. Some people said a fried ball of vegan mac & cheese was amazing. Some said it was disgusting. I set out to see for myself. <\/div>\n
<\/hr>\n
\n

<\/div>\n

      Well, I tried to make it into balls. I know now why every non-vegan recipe for deep-fried mac & cheese relies on egg mixed into the macaroni. Pasta balls really like falling apart! It turned into more of a patty, even though I mashed the pasta up pretty well. I’m sure it still tastes the same. That taste, by the way, is tempura skin. I guess that is just ‘fried’. Every time I have fried food, I remember that I don’t really like it. And then I forget and try again like 12 hours later, apparently. Someone remind me next time that I don’t like fried food. Anyway, here are some ‘instructions’. <\/span><\/div>\n
Fried Mac & Cheese<\/font><\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n\n\n\n
\n
     If you figure out a way to get the pasta to stay together better that isn’t real egg or flax egg (that would not taste good), let me know please. I didn’t have the will to try again. Too much frying. <\/em><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/u>: <\/p>\n

    \n
  • A batch of vegan macaroni and cheese, made the day before and refrigerated (it needs to be cold)<\/li>\n
  • A bowl of breadcrumbs<\/li>\n
  • Oil for frying<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Directions<\/u>: <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Take a handful of mac & cheese. Mash it with a fork or squeeze the hell out of it with your hand. Probably do both. <\/li>\n
    2. Roll it in the breadcrumbs so there’s a thick coating.<\/li>\n
    3. Heat the oil over medium heat in a frying pan.<\/li>\n
    4. Fry the mac ball in the oil for 5 minutes each side. <\/li>\n
    5. If your ball falls apart, just press it with a spatula into a patty. I think it’s better this way. Not that I think any of this is good at all. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n
