I love green beans. We grow about 150 acres of them here on our farm each year. I will definitely have to try this recipe. Yum!
I bet this would work with asparagus too. Sounds so good. As soon it cools off enough to face my stove I’m going to try it both ways
I love that idea Kris.
Fried asparagus is delicious. Hard to pick best between green beans and asparagus.
Oh Wow Marian!!!I’m going to have to try that! YUM!
Hi! I wonder if you could freeze these after batter dipping and possibly cook in the air fryer later? Love my air fryer and my green bean fries. I think I will try it!
That’s a great idea Pamela. I think it would work. I would lay the green beans on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, spread apart. Freeze them and then add them to a freezer safe zip to bag.
