Directions

  1. Heat the corn oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375°F.
  2. Whisk together flour, beer, milk, eggs, and salt to form a smooth, rather thin batter.
  3. Place cheese curds, about 6 to 8 at a time, into the batter. Stir to coat and remove with a wire strainer.
  4. Shake the curds to remove excess batter.
  5. Deep fry the curds in hot oil until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  6. Drain the cheese curds on a paper towel, serve hot, and enjoy!
