(Courtesy of bestsimplerecipes.com)
Ingredients:
4 medium baking potatoes
1 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. milk
1 egg
1 Tbsp. seasoned salt
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 c. beer (or non-alcoholic beer)
Oil for deep frying
Sour cream, opional

Directions:
Scrub and pierce potatoes.  Microwave, uncovered, on high for 10-12 minutes or just until tender, turning once.

Meanwhile, in a shallow bowl, whisk the flour, milk, egg, seasoned salt, oil and pepper until smooth.  Stir in beer; set aside.

When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut each into 12 wedges.  In an electric skillet or deep-fryer, heat oil to 375 degrees.  Dip potato wedges into batter.  Fry in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally.  Drain on paper towels.  Serve with sour cream if desired.
