How To Make beer battered zucchini fries

  • Step 1
    whisk together the flour, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Step 2
    in a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg yokes and vegetable oil.
  • Step 3
    drizzle the egg and oil mixture over the flour and mix together with a fork to crate a shaggy dough.
  • Step 4
    slowly pour in the beer while constantly whisking until a smooth batter forms.
  • Step 5
    cover with plastic wrap and refrigerated for at least 1 hour up to 4 hours before serving.
  • Step 6
    heat the oil in a large dutch oven until it reaches 375.
  • Step 7
    working with 1 batch of zucchini fries at a time, drop them into the batter, making sure each 1 is coated.
  • Step 8
    using tongs, gently add them to the oil and fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Step 9
    remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel lined pan.
  • Step 10
    allow the oil to come back up to temperature and then repeat until all of the zucchini has been fried.
  • Step 11
    serve with ranch dressing or a spicy mayonnaise.
