Deep-fried Mars bars are a popular treat originating from Scotland. While they are not the healthiest option, they can be a delicious indulgence if enjoyed in moderation. Here's a simple recipe to make deep-fried Mars bars at home:
Ingredients:
- Mars bars (chilled in the refrigerator)
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Batter mix (you can use a pre-made pancake mix or make your own using flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and eggs)
- Optional toppings: powdered sugar, ice cream, or chocolate sauce
Instructions:
Start by heating vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot. You'll need enough oil to fully submerge the Mars bars. Heat the oil to a temperature of around 350°F (175°C).
While the oil is heating, prepare the batter mix according to the instructions on the package or your own recipe. It should have a smooth and slightly thick consistency.
Unwrap the chilled Mars bars and carefully insert a wooden skewer or toothpick into each one. The skewer will help you handle and dip the bars in the batter.
Dip each Mars bar into the batter, making sure it is completely coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
Carefully place the coated Mars bars into the hot oil. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove the deep-fried Mars bars from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels. The paper towels will help absorb any excess oil.
Let the Mars bars cool slightly before serving. You can enjoy them as they are or add toppings like powdered sugar, a scoop of ice cream, or drizzle with chocolate sauce for extra indulgence.
Note: Be cautious when working with hot oil, as it can cause burns. Ensure that the Mars bars are chilled before frying to prevent them from melting too quickly.
Remember to enjoy deep-fried Mars bars in moderation due to their high calorie and sugar content. They are a treat best reserved for special occasions.
