EASY BEER BATTER



Easy Beer Batter image

First rule of beer batter: Beer batter is not complicated, it should only contain beer and self-raising flour. Second rule of beer batter: The beer should be cold. Third rule of beer batter: You DO NOT need to sift the flour and don't over-whisk it. A few lumps actually makes for a better texture. Fourth and most important rule of beer batter: It is important to choose the correct beer according to what you are going to cook. As any ingredient ranges in texture and taste, so does beer.

BEER-BATTERED FRIES

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Oil, preferably peanut or grapeseed, for frying
3/4 cup white rice flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 to 1 1/4 cups light beer, such as pilsner
3 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into batons 3 inches long, 1/2 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick, soaked in cold water

Steps:

  • Fill a small Dutch oven with 3 to 4 inches of oil and heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil registers 325 degrees F. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1 cup of the beer and stir until smooth, adding more beer a tablespoon at a time if necessary until the batter is the consistency of heavy cream. Set aside.
  • Using kitchen towels, dry the potatoes thoroughly. Working in batches, slide the potatoes into the oil, being careful not to crowd the pan, and cook until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or skimmer to remove to the towel-lined plate and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt.
  • Raise the oil temperature to 350 degrees F. Dip the partially cooked fries a few at a time in the batter to coat. Using a fork, slide the coated potatoes 1 at a time into the oil, about 6 or 8 in a batch so as not to overcrowd the pan. Use a metal skimmer or tongs to keep them separate, as they tend to cling together. Cook until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to fresh paper towels to drain. Serve immediately.

GRILLED SCALLOPS TACOS AND CABBAGE SLAW WITH SPICY AVOCADO SAUCE



Grilled Scallops Tacos and Cabbage Slaw With Spicy Avocado Sauce image

This is surprisingly fast to make and since scallops are sliced 1/2 to 1/3 horizontally (depending on size), they grill up very quickly on the pan. If scallops are large, then 1 taco equals 1 large scallop. But, if you are using medium or smaller scallops, you may need to use more scallops per taco. I love the creaminess of this avocado sauce which goes really well with other grilled fish or seafood items too.

Time 10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 large Hass avocado, roughly cut
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
1/2-1 large pickled jalapeno pepper, seeded (adjust heat to your liking)
1 tablespoon fresh limes or 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 large garlic clove
kosher salt
black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 limes, zest of or lemon
1 tablespoon limes or 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced
kosher salt
pepper
4 -6 large sea scallops (see description above)
olive oil
1/2 cup green cabbage, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1 -1 1/2 tablespoon cilantro, chopped roughly
4 corn tortillas

Steps:

  • In a blender combine the sauce ingredients and process until smooth. Transfer to a small serving bowl.
  • In a bowl whisk the marinade ingredients. Slice each scallops into 1/2 or 1/3 depending on size horizontally. Add the scallops to the marinade and turn to coat evenly. Cover and marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl combine the cabbage, onion, and cilantro.
  • Heat a nonstick frying pan and lightly coat with olive oil. Place the scallops without crowding and quickly sear the scallops on high heat until lightly browned, about 30 seconds to a minute. Turn over and brown on second side for 30 seconds to a minute. Do not overcook or they will toughen. Remove from pan.
  • Wipe the same frying pan and heat the tortillas both sides until warm about 15 seconds each side. Remove and continue with all the tortillas.
  • Fill each tortilla with some of the cabbage mixture and scallops. Top with the sauce and eat!
