Ingredients

• 16 pieces Fresh strawberries
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 large Egg
• 3 cups Vegetable oil for frying
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the strawberries, leaving the green tops intact for easy handling.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg until combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms. The batter should have a slightly thick consistency.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil for frying in a large, deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature for best results.

Step 6

Hold a strawberry by its green top, dip it into the batter to coat completely, and gently shake off any excess batter.

Step 7

Carefully lower the battered strawberry into the hot oil. Fry in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 8

Fry each strawberry for 1-2 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried strawberries to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Dust the fried strawberries with powdered sugar (optional) before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy this delicious treat immediately.
