1¼ cup self rising flour
¼ cup corn starch, plus extra for dusting
Pinch salt
1 egg, beaten
12oz cold beer of your choice
Sea salt to taste

1. Fill deep fryer with 4 quarts of oil. Set

and add beaten egg and beer. Slowly stir
mixture from the center out, making sure

tray with paper towel.

crisp. Remove and drain on a wire rack
sitting on a tray lined with paper towel.
