Kerr's Drunken Fried Strawberries

List of Ingredients




1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4-ounce yeast
1 teaspoon superfine sugar
3/8 cup water
3/8 cup flat beer
1 tablespoon olive oil
12 large strawberries
4 tablespoons Grand Marnier
Flour, to coat
1/2 stiffly beaten egg white
2 egg yolks
2 (1/2 egg shells) castor sugar
2 (1/2 egg shells) white wine

For batter: Sift together flour and salt and place in warmed bowl. Make well in center and add yeast, sugar and water; mix together in well. Add beer and oil to well and stir slowly, incorporating flour, to make a smooth batter. Let rest for 4 hours.

Inject strawberries with 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier and lightly flour. Heat oil in deep fryer to 380 degrees F. Fold in beaten egg white and 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier into beer batter. Dip strawberries into batter, 1 at a time and fry in oil about 1 minute, 20 seconds.

Heat together egg yolks, sugar, wine, and remaining Grand Marnier in double boiler, whisking for 4 minutes until thick and light. Fry strawberries once more for 40 seconds. Place on plate, lined with doily, and serve with sauce.

Yield: 4 portions
