Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 medium-sized Strawberries
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1.5 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the strawberries. Remove the green leafy tops and set the strawberries aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, beat the milk and egg together.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until the oil reaches 350°F (175°C). Ensure the oil is hot enough by testing with a small drop of batter; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.
Dip each strawberry into the batter, coating it completely. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
Carefully lower the battered strawberries into the hot oil using tongs or a slotted spoon. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding, turning occasionally, until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per batch).
Remove the fried strawberries with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
While the strawberries cool slightly, prepare the honey cream by whipping the heavy cream, honey, and vanilla extract together in a chilled bowl with a hand mixer until soft peaks form.
Transfer the honey cream to a serving bowl. Optionally, dust the fried strawberries with powdered sugar for garnish.
Serve the fried strawberries warm with honey cream on the side for dipping.
