French Fried Green Beans
- Ready In:
- 45mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 1 - 1 1⁄4 lb fresh green beans
- buttermilk pancake mix
- oil (for frying)
- 1⁄2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
directions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Heat oil in deep fryer to 375 degrees. You could use a heavy pot on the stove top with about 2 inches of oil in it. You want the beans to float and not be crowded.
- Wash the greenbeans and dry them well. Snip the ends but leave them full length.
- Prepare pancake mix per instructions on the box. You will need about 3 cups of the mixture.
- Dip the greenbeans in the batter mixture and put them in the hot oil. Put them in one at a time so they don't "glue" together but you can do quite a few at a time. Cook them until they are golden brown.
- Remove cooked beans from oil and drain on paper towels. While they are still hot sprinkle them with the parmesan cheese.
- Place the beans on a cookie sheet in the preheated oven while you cook the remaining beans. Try not to leave them in the oven for too long as the batter will start to get soft. Usually mine don't make it to the oven because they get eaten before they get that far.

<p>I love to cook. I'll try and cook anything once, truthfully, I've had some disasters. That is half of the fun. I like to cook for alot of people, cookouts, holiday dinners for friends and family, that sort of thing. I still enjoy doing the day to day stuff. My wife and girls are kind of picky eaters but they are starting to try differnet things. Since I lost my job I have more time to play in the kitchen. My pet peeve is watching a food commercial where the father is shown to be like a kitchen moron and has to do frozen or take out. I think alot of us dads could do circles around some of the women cooks. <br />My favorite pasttimes are fishing and miniature golf tournaments. Yes, miniature golf tournaments. Check out usprominigolf.com. or squeakybagel.com. I play with my girls and my brother plays in them now too. It's a blast and you get to meet some great people and play in Maine, Connecticut, or where ever you want to go, chances are there is a tournament near you and you don't even know it. We've been playing in them since 2005.</p>
