Ingredients
  

  • 12 Elderflower umbels

Batter:

  • 1 dl milk
  • 1,5 dl beer
  • 2 eggs
  • 80 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 2 tbsp sugar

For frying:

  • 1 l sunflower oil

For serving:

  • Icing sugar

Instructions
 

  • Whisk all ingredients for the batter well together. Refrigerate the batter for approx. 30 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a pan. Check if the oil is ready with a toothpick made of wood. If it sews around the toothpick when you put it in, the oil is warm.
  • Fry one umbel at a time. Start by shaking it, so small animals fall out. Dip it in the batter and place it in the hot oil. Hold the stem with a pair of tweezers or a fork while fried golden and crisp in the oil. Then put it on paper to drip off. Continue until you have roasted all the flower umbels.
  • Sprinkle with icing sugar and serve right away.
