Beer Battered Potato Wedges Recipe
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 extra large russet potato (or 2 medium)
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Lowry’s season salt
- ¼ – ½ cup beer (or water)
- Canola oil for frying
Instructions
- Slice the potato into wedges and place them into cold salted water for about 10 minutes.
- While the potatoes soak, heat 1” deep oil in an electric skillet over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F.
- While the oil is heating, sift the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and paprika into a medium bowl.
- Gradually stir in only enough beer (or water) so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon.
- Pat the wedges very dry with paper towel.
- Coat the potatoes in the batter, and then carefully lower them into the oil one at a time. Do not drop in groups or they will stick together.
- Fry for 10 minutes, flipping them over half way through.
- Remove from the oil onto a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper if desired.
