Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Green Bean Fries.
Step 1
Start by heating oil in a deep fryer or electric skillet until it reaches a sizzling 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oil is warming up, grab a saucepan and combine fresh green beans with enough water to cover them.
Step 3
Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a lively boil.
Step 4
Let the beans cook for about 4 minutes, just until they turn a vibrant shade of green.
Step 5
Once they’re ready, drain the beans and plunge them into a bowl of cold water to halt the cooking process and keep that beautiful color.
Step 6
Next, in a mixing bowl, whisk together an egg and a splash of milk until well combined.
Step 7
In another bowl, blend seasoned breadcrumbs with a sprinkle of chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder for an extra kick of flavor.
Step 8
Now it’s time to prepare the green beans for their crispy transformation.
Step 9
Drain the beans again and toss them in flour, making sure to shake off any excess.
Step 10
Dip each floured green bean into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak up that rich goodness, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.
Step 11
This is where the magic happens! Carefully place the coated green beans into the hot oil in small batches, making sure they have enough space to fry without touching each other.
Step 12
Fry them for about 2 minutes, or until they turn a gorgeous golden brown and become irresistibly crispy.
Step 13
Once they’re done, lift the beans out of the oil and let them drain on paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Step 14
Now, you’re ready to serve these delightful crispy green beans as a snack or a side dish that everyone will love.
Step 15
Enjoy the satisfying crunch and the burst of flavor in every bite!.
