Fook The Cook shows everyone how simple it is to make an excellent batter for deep frying.
It is a batter that can be used for anything you wish to deep fry, from meat to fruit, savoury foods to dessert foods.
It's quick to mix up and does not require any special ingredients, just regular items from the pantry.
Ingredients:-
2 cups all purpose flour
4 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons of white vinegar
3 teaspoons of cooking oil
1.8 cups of water
Method as shown in video.
Have fun making this batter, beating it with a wooden spoon is a good way to work off stress!

@@fookthecook1251 the only thing done a bit different is dad always added the water at once he knew how much every time…lol and then beat it until the consistency was the batter running in a thin stream off the spoon.

@JustHereToHear 6 лет назад

Ahh yes, this is the best! I used cold water and apple cider vinegar, but it really doesn't make much of a difference which vinegar you use, just a lil something to get that baking powder going. This was so crisp, it didn't take long to brown, rose quickly in the oil, and continued to be crisp even after frying. I halved the recipe and used this to make deep fried bananas, served with ice cream. With the balance batter, I funnelled it into hot oil, similar to funnel cakes, and served it with ice cream. Definitely a keeper! Thank you for sharing.

@rose799 3 года назад

You can lightly dust the chicken with some corn flour before dipping it in the batter. This will ensure batter remains on the chicken and doesn't come off. Also, try not to disturb the chicken too much in the first few minutes of frying. Allow the coating to set before turning it around.

@venb 2 года назад

Tried this with deep fried cheese, even with thickening the batter with more flour the cheese still went out. Although 1/4 of them did, good batter will use again when time comes

@jfrphoto01 Год назад

Try freezing the cheese for 15 minutes before coating and frying. If you try using just batter the cheese will ooze out. you have to coat it again with flour or bread crumbs to form a seal. Also the oil temp for that kind of frying should be 375 F. and the time in the oil should only be long enough to lightly brown the coating. Remember, you are only slightly melting the cheese in the oil as the residual heat will continue to melt the cheese once it is out of the oil.

@fookthecook1251 Год назад

If the chicken (or fish, veg, etc.) is wet before going into the batter, the batter may not stay on well during frying. This can be remedied by dusting the wet ingredient with flour before dipping into batter to fry.

@jfrphoto01 Год назад

Always dry the food to be fried with paper towels to avoid hot oil splatter, coat lightly with all purpose flour (shake off excess) and then dip in the batter. Let excess batter drip off for about 5 seconds and then fry,. Times will vary based on what you are frying.

Funny you should mention hand-beating, Fook The Cook. I use this method when mixing the batter for English crumpets (the one's with the holes in that are toasted before being spread with butter). As you say, it is such fun as well as being effective. My old dad used to used a dinner fork to whisk Yorkshire Pudding batter and he resisted all attempts to wean him off this practice despite it taking him an age to do so and still getting lumps in the mixture. :º) Thanks for the tips.
