Instructions
- Wash and dry beans, then trim the stem ends off. Make sure your beans are completely dry before frying.
- Fill a pot or skillet with 2-3 of inches of oil. Heat the oil to 350F.
- While the oil is heating add the flour to a pie plate or similar shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Then whisk in the cold beer slowly to make a thin batter, about the consistency of pancake batter. If your batter seems too thin, add a bit more flour. If it gets too thick add more beer.
- Drop the beans in the batter, and then into the hot oil. Work in small batches so you don't crowd them in the pan. They will fry to golden in about 2 minutes. I toss them around as they fry to get them evenly golden. Note: between batches remove any stray bits of fried batter from the oil as they can burn and impart a bitter flavor.
- Drain fried beans on paper towels and shower lightly with kosher salt.
- Serve the beans right away, with your favorite dipping sauce.
- Got leftovers? Reheat in a low 325F oven until hot.
