BEER BATTER DEEP FRIED GREEN BEANS AND/OR OKRA
Using Rice Bran oil makes a very light deep fry. RB Oil has a high smoke temperature and can be reused up to 10 times. It is also loaded with nutrition compared to other fry oils. (It's considered a nutraceutical. I discovered it via Google.) Prep and Cooking time will vary. I have a small electric deep fryer so it took awhile to cook all the batches. I only added 6 string beans at a time. Same with the Okra. Otherwise, the vegetables will drift and stick together.

Steps:
- Preheat Rice Bran oil or other high temperature oil to 375 degrees F.
- Whisk the beer, flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
- Let mixture sit for a little bit (can be made ahead).
- Trim green bean ends and/or caps off okra (If using okra use only smaller young pods).
- Dip green beans and/or okra into the batter to coat, letting excess drip off. (I use a strainer).
- Fry in the oil in batches, until they are golden and crisp.
- Remove from oil with a strainer to a paper towel lined plate or cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper. I use fresh ground pepper and fresh ground coarse salt.
- After finding I had extra batter left over, I added cinnamon and raw cane sugar to the batter and split some regular eating bananas -- battered them up and fried them too. Added drizzle of honey and scoop of vanilla ice cream -- and Viola! Tasty dessert with no hint of the aforementioned green beans nor okra.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in deep fryer until it is fairly hot. When a single bean is dropped into the oil, it should bubble all over. Deep-fry half the beans until they are slightly wrinkled, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the beans and drain them. Deep-fry the second batch in the same way. Transfer about 1 tablespoon of the oil in which you have cooked the beans to a clean wok or skillet. The rest of the oil can be retained for future use in cooking vegetables. Add the garlic, ginger, and scallions and stir-fry quickly. Add the chilies and stir-fry them for about 30 seconds, until they turn black. Remove the chilies and add all the other ingredients. Stir-fry the mixture for a few seconds, and then add the cooked, drained beans. Mix well until all the beans are thoroughly coated with the spicy mixture. Serve as soon as the beans have heated through.

Tips:
- Select the right green beans: Choose fresh, tender green beans that are not too thick or woody.
- Wash and trim the green beans: Rinse the green beans thoroughly under cold water. Trim off the ends and any tough strings.
- Soak the green beans in ice water: Soaking the green beans in ice water for 30 minutes will help them stay crisp after frying.
- Use a light batter: A light batter will allow the green beans to stay crispy. Avoid using a heavy batter, which will make the green beans soggy.
- Fry the green beans in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when the green beans are added. This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the green beans. This will cause them to steam instead of fry.
- Drain the green beans on paper towels: After frying, drain the green beans on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Season the green beans: Season the green beans with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings.
Conclusion:
Deep-fried green beans are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. By following these tips, you can ensure that your green beans turn out crispy, tender, and flavorful. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own.
