Beer batter is an Australian favourite so I thought I'd spice up the traditional recipe a little and cook some battered pineapple pieces. Don't use your last beer when cooking this!! You could also used tinned pineapple pieces but personally I thought some larger chunks would be better.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 teaspoons chili flakes
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon onion flakes
5/8 cup beer
1 teaspoon tabasco sauce
1/2 large pineapple, diced into bite sized cubes
oil (for deep frying)
Directions:
1. Mix dry ingredients well in bowl.
2. Add beer stirring constantly until desired consistency is reached (indicated quantity worked for me, a bit under 3/4 cup).
3. Add tobasco sauce and stir.
4. Place cubed pineapple into bowl and mix well to coat.
5. Place bowl in freezer for an hour, stirring 3 or 4 times to re-coat the pineapple.
6. Deep fry in hot oil until golden brown. Take care while placing something very cold into something very hot.
7. Serve cooled as a finger food or hot in a bowl with ice-cream over the top (not a bad idea and how I had them).
