Beer Battered Fried Green Beans 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:

• Whisk together beer, salt, lime juice, flour, garlic powder and cayenne pepper until smooth and foamy.
• Dredge trimmed beans in batter to coat.
• Heat oil in deep skillet to 375 degrees.
• Working in batches of about 10 beans each, carefully lower into the oil and cook for about 1 minute. Transfer to rack to drain and cool. Reapeat until all beans are fried.
• Make Remoulade Dip ahead of time by mixing all ingredients and chilling, covered for at least one hour.
• Serve as follows: In a clear tumbler, place a few tablespoons of Remoulade dip and arrange fried beans standing vertically in the tumbler. Garnish with lime wedges.

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.
