Fried Gorgonzola Olives - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (15 ounce) can jumbo pitted black olives, drained
    4 ounces soft Gorgonzola cheese
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/4 cup milk
    1 cup Italian-style dry bread crumbs
    oil for deep frying
Preparation
    Drain olives well on paper towels. Place Gorgonzola cheese in a pastry bag, or a heavy plastic bag, and squirt into each olive.
    Whisk together the eggs and milk; place the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Dip olives in the egg mixture, shake off the excess, and roll in bread crumbs to coat; set aside.
    Heat at least 4 inches of oil in a large pot to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
    Fry olives in hot oil until golden brown and drain on paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
