Me too! C'mon someone, please.

Beer Batter
-----------

1 cup flour

1 cup warm beer

pinch salt

2 tbs. oil

2 egg whites

Sift the flour into a bowl, make a hole in the center and add the beer, salt and oil. Beat until smooth. Leave to stand for 1 hour, and just before using add the stiffly beaten egg whites.

Using whole eggs instead of egg whites will produce a good but less 'crispy' coating.

And of course the choice of beer is very important, i prefer a Guiness stout or a porter, Sierra Nevada is a brand i often buy for cooking. But a good strong dark beer is what you want.


Sometimes this batter is used to deep fry fruit or other sweets and then some sugar is added, about 1 tbs.

THe above is great with for onion rings. Batter fried halibut, pork, chicken etc.
