These deep-fried green beans are coated in a flavorful beer batter that makes them extra crispy on the outside while remaining tender on the inside. They are perfect for game day, parties, or any occasion where you want to impress your friends and family.

Deep Fried Beer Battered Green Beans

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup beer (preferably a lager or pale ale)
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Dipping sauce (ranch or aioli, optional)

Instructions:

  1. Begin by washing and trimming the green beans. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to mix.
  3. Gradually add the beer to the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth batter. The consistency should be thick enough to coat the green beans but still pourable.
  4. In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You’ll want enough oil to fully submerge the green beans.
  5. Working in batches, dip the green beans into the beer batter, ensuring they are evenly coated. Carefully drop them into the hot oil.
  6. Fry the green beans for about 3-4 minutes or until they’re golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
  7. Continue frying the remaining green beans, making sure not to overcrowd the pot.
  8. Once all the green beans are fried, serve them hot with your choice of dipping sauce!

Enjoy these crispy, savory deep-fried green beans at your next gathering or as a tasty snack any time you crave something delicious. They’re sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
