Yield: 2 generous servings

Ingredients

  1. Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
  2. 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  3. 1 teaspoon chili powder
  4. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  5. 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  6. 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  7. 3/4 cup beer
  8. 1 large russet potato (about 3/4 pound)

Instructions

  1. Fill a heavy Dutch oven outfitted with a deep-fry thermometer halfway up with oil. Heat the oil to 375 degrees F.
  2. Whisk together the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and beer in a large bowl, until a thin batter forms.
  3. Cut the fries into a curly shape using a curly-fry cutter.
  4. In batches, dredge the potatoes in the batter, and then fry them until crisp, 6 to 7 minutes; use tongs to separate the potatoes while they’re in the oil, so they don’t stick together.) Drain the fries on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt before serving.

Made these yesterday.  I dug out my 30 year old Tater Twister.  The batter was very thin but the final product tasted pretty good.  I’ll make the batter thicker (not using a whole bottle of beer, but following

the printed recipe).

These were sooooo good!! If you have the OXO spiralizer just use the thicker fettuccine setting and you will have thicker fries. Will definitely be making this again. My husband and I had zero leftover. YUM

I was not wowed by this recipe. It was good, but not worth repeating.

You can also use an Apple corer/slicer. Makes spirals too.
