Recipe Summary Fried Black-Eye Peas
I make these with leftover cooked black-eyed peas cooked with ham hocks or smoked turkey from New Year's. I sometimes top with a fried green tomato or left over candied yams. Get creative with them. I've tried several variations. This is the basic version.Ingredients | Aot Eren Titan Eyes½ pound bacon3 cups canned black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained2 tablespoons minced shallot⅓ cup chopped roasted red peppers3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as neededsalt and black pepper to taste1 tablespoon butter1 tablespoon vegetable oilDirectionsPlace the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.Mash the black-eye peas in a bowl with a fork. Crumble the bacon into the peas, and stir in the shallot, red peppers, and enough flour to make the mixture stick together. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Form the black-eye pea mixture into 4 patties.Melt the butter with the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until golden brown and crispy on each side, about 4 minutes per side.Info | Aot Eren Titan Eyesprep:
