Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make crispy batter? Prepare your food. Keep in mind that it is better to prepare the batter in advance, at least an hour before preparing the dish. During this time, the gluten contained in the flour will develop well. The dough will become elastic, and the batter will better envelop the pieces, stick to the product and not dry out during frying.

Step 2

Step 2
Break the eggs into the bowl for preparing the batter.

Step 3

Step 3
Whisk the eggs until smooth. There is no need to beat the eggs vigorously, just to combine the whites and yolks. The batter will be even more airy and crispy if you first separate the eggs into whites and yolks, beat them separately, and then combine them.

Step 4

Step 4
Add vegetable oil and vodka to the eggs. Donʼt be alarmed by the presence of alcohol in the dish. It will completely evaporate during heat treatment. Since alcohol evaporates at a lower temperature than water, being instead in batter during frying, quickly evaporating, will make the products more airy and crispy.

Step 5

Step 5
Then add salt to taste, ground black pepper or any aromatic spices you like. A particularly enticing aroma can be achieved using ground nuts or cheese. Add approximately three tablespoons of flour. Flour comes in different grades and densities, so it is difficult to determine its exact amount. Look at the consistency of the batter; it should turn out like pancake dough or thick sour cream. Add more flour if necessary.

Step 6

Step 6
Mix the batter carefully so that there are no lumps. If the batter is too thick, you can dilute it a little with boiled cold water.

Step 7

Step 7
In such a quack you can fry meat, fish, poultry, any vegetables, as well as seafood. Using crispy batter, you can prepare wonderful beer snacks, such as sausages in batter, crab sticks and everyone’s favorite onion rings.
