How to Make Beer Batter Fried Veggies N Things

  1. Preheat your deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 packet ranch soup mix, 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  3. Add the wet ingredients: 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup beer (any kind works!), and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  4. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the flour to fully hydrate.
  5. Cut your vegetables (such as broccoli florets, bell pepper strips, zucchini slices) into bite-sized pieces. If using mozzarella cheese, cut into small cubes and chill beforehand.
  6. Carefully dip the vegetables and cheese into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.
  7. Gently drop the battered items into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry in batches if necessary.
  8. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Turn carefully using tongs.
  9. Remove the fried veggies and cheese from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  10. Serve immediately while hot and crispy. Enjoy!
