Beer Batter For Frying Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk flour and beer together in a bowl until batter is just combined; batter will be lumpy.

Steps:

• Sift Flour and Baking Powder into a bowl.
• Pour Liquid, (Lager is best but Water can also be used) into a bowl.
• Sift Flour and Baking powder mix over the liquid a little at a time whisking inbetween until all is mixed with no lumps.
• At this stage, check consistency to your requirements. Add a little more flour for thicker batter, a little more liquid for a thinner batter. No more Baking powder is needed.
• Use immediately, no need to rest.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Rinse fish, pat dry, and season with salt and pepper.
• Combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Stir egg into dry ingredients. Gradually mix in beer until a thin batter is formed. You should be able to see the fish through the batter after it has been dipped.
• Dip fish fillets into the batter, then drop one at a time into hot oil. Fry fish, turning once, until both sides are golden brown. Drain on paper towels, and serve warm.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cornstarch.
• In a large bowl, beat together eggs and milk. Mix in beer. Stir in flour mixture. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
• In an electric deep fryer or a heavy saucepan, heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Coat fish in batter, and submerge in hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oil in a deep-fryer or a Dutch oven to about 360 to 375 degrees F.
• Add the first 5 ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Dip cod into the batter and allow any excess batter to drip off prior to adding to the preheated oil. Fry the fish until browned on both sides. Once browned, remove to a paper-towel lined plate and season with salt, to taste.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Steps:

• Fill a small Dutch oven with 3 to 4 inches of oil and heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil registers 325 degrees F. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1 cup of the beer and stir until smooth, adding more beer a tablespoon at a time if necessary until the batter is the consistency of heavy cream. Set aside.
• Using kitchen towels, dry the potatoes thoroughly. Working in batches, slide the potatoes into the oil, being careful not to crowd the pan, and cook until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or skimmer to remove to the towel-lined plate and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt.
• Raise the oil temperature to 350 degrees F. Dip the partially cooked fries a few at a time in the batter to coat. Using a fork, slide the coated potatoes 1 at a time into the oil, about 6 or 8 in a batch so as not to overcrowd the pan. Use a metal skimmer or tongs to keep them separate, as they tend to cling together. Cook until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to fresh paper towels to drain. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl add flour, egg, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir in 1 cup beer (you can add more than one cup to obtain your desired texture).

Steps:

• Cut the fillets into three-by-four-inch pieces. Sprinkle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Combine the egg yolks, beer, flour and baking powder. Mix thoroughly.
• Whip the egg whites until stiff.
• Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until well mixed in.
• Heat the oil to 375 degrees (or to almost smoking point). Put the fish into the batter and shake off excess. Fry a few pieces at a time, turning with a slotted spoon when they rise to the surface. Drain on paper towels and keep warm until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Whisk together the beer, 1 1/2 cups flour, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, and seasoned salt in a large bowl. Dip the pickle slices into the beer batter, then coat them in the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour.
• Fry the pickles in the preheated oil until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes.
