the next dish that we're gonna be
0:03
preparing for our Christmas meal y'all
0:05
we're gonna make deep-fried asparagus to
0:08
go with the Creole dipping sauce we made
0:10
now I like to snap my asparagus and it
0:14
will naturally snap the woodsy end from
0:17
the tender end now when we get these all
0:20
snapped what I need for you to do is run
0:23
it under the water because we're gonna
0:26
shake it up in some flour and we want to
0:28
have something that will help it stick
0:31
to that asparagus and in this bag I'm
0:34
gonna add a cup of flour and while
0:37
you're doing that I'm gonna come down
0:40
here and put the rest of our ingredients
0:42
together then put it in our bag and
0:45
after you get it checking up with that
0:48
flour we're gonna need to put it in a
0:50
wet batter so I'm gonna measure out
0:53
about a cup of buttermilk along with one
0:57
egg have you ever had fried our head oh
1:02
my goodness I like asparagus though you
1:04
know everything's better fried and I'm
1:08
gonna add about a tablespoon of hot
1:11
sauce to this and that's gonna give it a
1:13
nice little shot of something fun so I'm
1:18
just gonna mix those ingredients
1:21
and then I have got our deep fryer
1:23
heated up to about 360 degrees and in
1:29
this bowl I'm using a cup and a half of
1:33
self-rising cornmeal and to that I'm
1:38
gonna add like a tablespoon of cajun
1:42
seasoning and I'm gonna mix that up so
1:44
if you'll just take that asparagus we're
1:47
gonna dip it in our wet and then into
1:50
our dry and then into the fryer what are
1:53
