Beer-Battered Fries

3 large Russet potatos, sliced into fries and drained well

Batter:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground white pepper
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp dried dill
1/4 tsp dried thyme
3/4 cup dark ale
1/2 cup water

Make batter by combining all dry ingredients in a medium bowl and adding the ale and enough water (about 1/2 cup) to make a thick batter.

Heat vegetable oil to 350 degrees F in a fryer. Add fries to the fryer slowly after dredging them in the batter and allowing them to drip briefly. Cook to a golden brown.
