From that expedition, I unearthed some culinary treasures: prickly pears and cactus paddles. Now, these aren&#8217;t your everyday finds at the local grocery store, especially not here in Ohio!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeling inspired by these newfound ingredients, I decided to whip up a batch of cactus fries paired with homemade prickly pear ketchup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/cactus-fries-recipe.jpg\" alt=\"cactus paddle fries\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here&#8217;s What You Need:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cactus paddles<\/strong>: Provide the main ingredient for the fries, known for their unique flavor and texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flour<\/strong>: Creates the base for the batter, ensuring the fries have a crispy coating.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cornmeal<\/strong>: Adds texture to the batter, enhancing the crunchiness of the fries.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking soda<\/strong>: Helps the batter rise slightly, contributing to its light and airy texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking powder<\/strong>: Further leavens the batter, resulting in a crispier coating on the fries.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Egg<\/strong>: Binds the ingredients together, giving the batter structure and helping it adhere to the cactus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Water + ice<\/strong>: Provides the liquid for the batter, ensuring it&#8217;s thin enough to coat the cactus evenly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vegetable oil<\/strong>: Used for frying the cactus fries, ensuring they&#8217;re cooked to golden perfection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-does-cactus-taste-like\">What Does Cactus Taste Like?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, full disclosure, I hadn&#8217;t dabbled much with cactus before, except for a fleeting encounter with cactus jelly during my childhood. The taste? Think okra meets green beans with a dash of asparagus. Cactus paddles offer a unique flavor profile that&#8217;s both tangy and subtly sweet, with hints of lemon and a fresh, vegetal taste. Their texture is crisp and succulent, providing a refreshing crunch to dishes. Incorporating cactus paddles into recipes adds a distinctive touch, elevating the overall flavor experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/peeled-prickly-pear.jpg\" alt=\"peeling prickly pear\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As for prickly pears, my experience was limited to just one tasting. But peeling one? That was a first. Surprisingly, the skin peels off effortlessly when ripe, revealing a vibrant pink, pear-shaped fruit at its core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/prickly-pear-juice.jpg\" alt=\"straining prickly pear\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To concoct the prickly pear ketchup, I blended the pears into a smooth puree using my trusty food processor. Given their seedy texture, I strained the puree through a sieve to achieve the desired consistency. A quick boil with sugar, apple cider vinegar, and lime juice thickened it up perfectly, ready to chill until serving time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/nopales-paddle.jpg\" alt=\"cutting cactus fries\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, onto the cactus fries. The trickiest part? Removing those spines. Armed with a sharp ceramic knife, I meticulously scraped away the spines, ensuring no unwanted surprises ended up in my mouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pro tip: Trim off and discard all edges\u2014they&#8217;re the prickliest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/nopales-fries.jpg\" alt=\"nopales fries\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Before dipping the cactus fries into the batter, a thorough inspection for any stray spines is a must. I whipped up a simple cornmeal\/tempura batter to coat the fries, guaranteeing a satisfyingly crispy exterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/tempura-batter.jpg\" alt=\"cactus batter\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Frying these green wonders in batches is key to achieving that golden-brown perfection while ensuring the cactus itself cooks through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/fried-cactus.jpg\" alt=\"deep fried cactus\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When the fries are ready, transfer them to a paper towel lined plate, but be sure to season them right away. I topped mine with a generous amount of salt, like traditional potato fries would be. The super salty fries went super well with the tangy sweet flavor of the prickly pear ketchup. As far as unusual recipes go, I thought this one was pretty delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Tips and Troubleshooting:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Removing cactus spines<\/strong>: Use a sharp knife to carefully scrape across the paddles to remove all spines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ensuring crispy fries<\/strong>: Fry the cactus in batches to prevent overcrowding, ensuring even cooking and crispy results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Testing oil temperature<\/strong>: Use a thermometer to maintain the oil at 325\u00b0F for optimal frying.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adjusting batter consistency<\/strong>: If the batter is too thick, add a little more chilled water to thin it out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Checking for doneness<\/strong>: Fry the cactus fries until they&#8217;re golden brown and crispy on the outside, ensuring the cactus is cooked through.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thestarvingchefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/prickly-pear-dip.jpg\" alt=\"fries in dip\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So, there you have it, Hungry People!
