Deep-Fried Dandelions

Wash dandelions under cool running water and dry on paper towels. Remove the green tendrils behind each flower.

Mix flour curry powder and salt together in a bowl or measuring cup. Beat egg in a bowl; stir in flour mixture until smooth. Add beer to mixture until batter is similar to runny pancake batter. Add more beer if batter is too thick.

Heat oil in a small saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). If you don't have a thermometer heat the oil until it begins to shimmer.

Dip dandelion flowers in the batter and gently drop in the hot oil working in batches. Fry flowers until golden about 3 minutes. Transfer cooked flowers to crumpled paper towels or on a wire rack; serve warm.
