Servings: persons

1 cup sour cream
2 to 3 tablespoons horseradish
2 teaspoons hot sauce
Parsley, for garnish (optional)
2 cups sliced pickled jalapeno peppers, drained
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
Handful of crushed tortilla or corn chips
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Canola oil, as needed

1
For the dipping sauce, mix all ingredients in a bowl. Let chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
2
In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour and finely crushed chips. In a smaller bowl, mix the milk, eggs, garlic powder and salt.
3
Warm the oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. (I found that about a half-inch of oil in the pan was adequate.)
4
Using a slotted spoon or hands, spoon some of the peppers into the milk mixture to coat, and then toss into the cornmeal mixture to coat too. Shake off excess cornmeal coating.
5
In batches, add the coated jalapenos into saute pan, and fry until golden in hot oil. Drain on paper towels. Repeat in batches until all the jalapenos have been fried.
6
Serve jalapenos hot with horseradish sauce.
