How to Make Wendy's Famous Beer Batter

Keep in mind beer batter is not just good for fish. I use this recipe for mushroom caps, onion rings, vegetables and for cheese. Be creative

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Beer (any brand I perer Blue but any lager will do
• flour
• eggs (seperate yolk s from whites)
• pinch of salt and pepper to taste
• pinch ofgarlic salt (or powder) (optional)
• pinch of Onion salt (optional)
• tops of green onions (or chives) chopped fine
• parsley (optional)
• parmesian cheese (shaker type like for spaghetti)
• any fish fillet

1. Pour 1 Cup of flour and 1 cup of beer in a large bowl. Stir until the batter becomes smooth. Achieve the consistency of pancake batter and set aside.
2. Seperate eggs. Add yolks to batter Set aside egg whites
3. Add rest of desired spices and onions(chives) to mixture. Stir
4. Add Parmesan cheese (approx 1 tablespoon) I like more than that
5. Mix everything together except egg whites while still maitaning the consistancy of pancake batter
6. Beat egg whites until firm(stand in peaks) Fold egg whites carefully into batter with a large spoon
7. Make sure oil is hot. So when you sprinkle a bit of water on it, it sizzles. Need enough to cover whatever you are deep frying
8. Dip fish into beer batter covering entirely. Deep fry until golden brown

Tips & Warnings

• I use canola oil for deep frying
• This recipe is great for wild game too. I make chicken fingers out partridge and wow does it taste great
• Perfect for deep frying seafood or crunchy vegetables like zucchini and cauliflower
• Please don't try this recipe as it is addicting and the best I have ever tried.
• Can switch the spices around for a total different flavour. I have added roast beef spice and/or french fry spice as well. Goes great with onion rings and mushroom caps.
• Sure beats KFC chicken any day
