Drain jalapeno peppers and set aside. Mix crackers and flour together, blend well.
In separate bowl beat eggs and water, blend well.
Heat oil in frying pan, deep fryer, or fry cooker until temperature is the same degree, you would use for french fries.
Dip slices of peppers in egg wash and then the flour and cracker crumb mixture, dust off excess dry ingredients and carefully placing hot oil.
Place enough of the peppers in your deep frying system so they are not overcrowded. Take care, the peppers like to pop a little. Fry until golden brown.
