Beer Batter Deep Fried Green Beans Andor Okra Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a deep fryer to 300 degrees F, or in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 300 degrees F.
• In a bowl, mix the tempura mix and the beer. In a separate bowl, mix the string beans, heavy cream, flour, and salt. Add the bean mixture to the tempura mixture and coat the beans well. Lift the coated beans out of the batter, allow the excess batter to drip back into the bowl, and add the beans to the fryer and fry, in batches, until light golden brown. Drain the beans on paper towels, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat Rice Bran oil or other high temperature oil to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk the beer, flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
• Let mixture sit for a little bit (can be made ahead).
• Trim green bean ends and/or caps off okra (If using okra use only smaller young pods).
• Dip green beans and/or okra into the batter to coat, letting excess drip off. (I use a strainer).
• Fry in the oil in batches, until they are golden and crisp.
• Remove from oil with a strainer to a paper towel lined plate or cookie sheet.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. I use fresh ground pepper and fresh ground coarse salt.
• After finding I had extra batter left over, I added cinnamon and raw cane sugar to the batter and split some regular eating bananas -- battered them up and fried them too. Added drizzle of honey and scoop of vanilla ice cream -- and Viola! Tasty dessert with no hint of the aforementioned green beans nor okra.

Steps:

• Preheat oil to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk the beer, flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
• Dip green beans into batter to coat, letting excess drip off. Fry in the peanut oil in batches, until they are golden and crisp. Remove from oil with a spider strainer to a paper towel lined sheet tray. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Mix the corn meal, 1/2 Cup of the flour, the hot sauce, the salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• Slowly mix enough beer into the bowl to make a batter a little thinner than pancake batter.

• Put the remaining flour into a plastic bag and set aside.
• Rinse the okra and dry it well.
• Slice the caps off and discard.
• Cut the pods into 1/2 inch rounds.
• Add the okra to the bag of flour and shake to coat well.
