Best Beer Batter Fried Kale Recipes

BEER BATTER-FRIED KALE

Steps:

• In a blender blend the beer, the flour, the table salt, and the pepper for 20 seconds, or until the batter is smooth, transfer the batter to a bowl, and let it stand, covered, for 1 hour.
• In a large deep skillet heat 1 inch of the oil until it registers 360°F. on a deep-fat thermometer. Dip each leaf into the batter, coating it thoroughly and knocking off the excess batter on the side of the bowl, and fry it in the oil for 30 seconds on each side, or until it is golden. Transfer the kale as it is fried to paper towels to drain and sprinkle it lightly with the coarse salt. Serve the kale with the lemon wedges.

CRISPY SPICED KALE

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine kale, scallions, spices and salt.
• In another bowl whisk together chickpea flour, cornstarch, salt and baking powder. Whisk in the sparkling water. Mixture should have consistency of thick cream. Scrape into bowl with kale mixture and combine thoroughly.
• Pour oil into a wok or wide saucepan to a depth of 3 inches and heat over medium-high heat to 360 to 375 degrees. Set up a sheet pan with a rack on it next to the pan. Cover the rack with a few layers of paper towels. Have a spider or deep fry skimmer handy for removing the kale from the oil.
• Take up the kale mixture by the heaped tablespoon and carefully slide into the hot oil. The mixture should break apart into small pieces. Fry until golden, which shouldn't take much more than a minute, using the spider to flip the pieces over or press them down into the oil once so that all of the batter gets crisped. Using the spider, remove from the oil, allowing excess oil to drip back into the pan, and drain on the towel-covered rack. Sprinkle with salt if desired. Allow to cool slightly and serve.
