What Do You Fry?

I can't believe no one has suggested chicken wings! The best fried food IMO. Here's how I make mine: Get a sick of butter and about half a bottle of hot sauce like franks or crystal or petes (I don't like tabasco for this) Melt the butter with the hot sauce in a small sauce pan. This is your sauce.
Get some chicken wings, wash them with cold water then dry them with some paper towels. Put them in a big ziplock bag with some flour, salt, pepper and a little cayenne pepper. Shake them around until they are evenly coated. Heat your oil up to 350-375 and toss the wings in. If you have a big fryer you can put them all in at once. If you have a small fryer you want to do a few batches. You don't want the temperature of your oil to drop too much. This makes soggy fried food. They wings are done when they are a nice golden brown color and when they float to the top of the oil.
When the wings are done, put them in a big bowl and toss them with the sauce. There you go, you have wings that are better than most restaurants.

If you do one more thing in life, make it a deep fried battered mars bar :) :)

If i had the money i'd do tempura tiger prawns, tempura soft shell crab, calamari, the works :) Rainbow chard is a nice vegetable to tempura
Battered Mars chocolate... Never had one. Sounds terribly unhealthy.

Then again, so are corn dogs... yummy :3

I have a place by me that sells deep fried twinkies. They sound gross but are delicious.

Yeah, someone already mentioned twinkies. I think I'd actually die on the spot from the unhealthiness. But so nomful...

Om nom nom. Maybe getting some fancy low fat hotdogs and making your own batter would make it a bit more healthy ^^; *is hungry now*

I don't think there is anything that comes out of a deep fryer that is healthy. just don't eat too much of it.

Yeah, it's pretty unavoidable. I tend to shallow fry things, use an Acti-fry (you only need like a teaspoon) or that Olive Oil in a spray can. Damn expensive but you use so little of it, it lasts months.

Mars Bars and Milky ways :) Try using pancake mix as bater for sweet stuff its good...... Ice cream balls R awesome in tempora bater tae. Make sure you refreeze em after you balled up the ice cream. Any sweets that have chocolate in you can deep fry and it tastes amazin.
Haggis Is the nuts battered and fried to, cut it in 1/2" thick slices cooks beter that way than just doing a whole sausage.
I'm so fucken hungry now.... I'm on a diet tho.... Ramen noodles it is.

so i got a deep fryer for free and was wondering whats the best thing you have deep fried? im gonna get some shit tomorrow to make some pineapple fritters :D and some other stuff im sure you guys got some good ideas.
Pound out thin sliced breast of chicken to be very thin, as thin as you can get. Roll the chicken up with salt, pepper, some butter and cheese in the middle and bread it with crushed saltines crackers and egg. Then fry those piggies up, and enjoy the goodness. Kind of a take on chicken cord en bleu or chicken kiev.

You can make your own popcorn chicken with a simple wet batter, or you could add some flair and marinate the chicken in some soy/garlic/onion/rice vinegar/balsamic vinegar/brown sugar for like 4 hours, then cut into 1- 1 1/2" cubes, batter with a wet batter of simply flour/salt/pepper/galic/parmesian cheese/chopped flatleaf parsley/sesame oil then give a quick roll in some panko breadcrumbs and fry, mofo, fry.

Pancake mix and beer is a good batter for stuff like fish or onion rings.
We have alot of Brits on this site, how about fish and chips?

I'm no Brit, but this person has a point, a good fish and chips is pretty awesome...especially with some nice course salt and malt vinegar on the chips.
