Method
Fried Green Beans
- 1
Prepare the Green Beans
Begin by rinsing the fresh green beans under cold water. Trim the ends of the green beans to remove any tough parts.
- 2
Make the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold water until a smooth batter forms.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it sizzles and floats to the surface, it's ready.
- 4
Fry the Green Beans
Dip the prepared green beans into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated. Carefully place a few battered green beans at a time into the hot oil. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- 5
Serve
Serve the fried green beans hot, alongside your dipping sauce.
Dipping Sauce
- 6
Mix the Sauce
In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce, and lemon juice. Stir well until all ingredients are fully integrated and the sauce is smooth.
- 7
Taste and Adjust
Taste the dipping sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more hot sauce for extra heat or more lemon juice for acidity.
- 8
Chill and Serve
Refrigerate the dipping sauce for at least 15 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors. Serve chilled with the fried green beans.
