Fried Squash and Fried Green Beans

Today I made "the piggies" fried squash and fried green beans. I have made them fried squash before but today was a first for the green beans.

Here is my recipe:


Fried Green Beans

Unbleached all-purpose flour
Egg
Milk
Fresh green beans
Coconut oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Put a jar of coconut oil in a dutchoven on the stove on medium-medium high heat (be sure the Dutch oven is deep). Heat the oil to about 350 degrees.

Wash then blanch the green beans (put them in water boil then drain) while the oil is heating.

Use three bowls. Put about a cup of all-purpose flour in the first bowl, beat 1 egg and about ½ cup of milk in the second bowl, and then put a cup of all-purpose flour, salt, and pepper in the third bowl.

Dip the green beans one at a time in the first bowl, then the second, and then roll it in the third bowl. After you have done this to every green bean.

Put about 12 of the coated green beans in the coconut oil in the Dutch oven fry them for 4-5 minutes or until the coating is crispy. Drain on a paper towel. Continue until you have fried all of them.

(You can make the squash the same way just cut it into thin slices first.)
