Fried Stuffed Squash Blossoms

• 20 male squash blossoms (or use some female with immature fruit attached)
• 20 pieces jalapeno jack cheese (about 1/4 inch squared and 1/2 inch short of each blossom tip)
• oil (for frying-you will want it about 1 1/2 inches deep)
• 14-12 cup flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup cold water
• 34 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 12 teaspoon baking powder
• 34 teaspoon salt

1. Rinse and drain blossoms-pat dry.
2. "stuff"each flower with a piece of cheese and twist the ends to seal.
3. Roll in flour.
4. Dip in tempura batter Fry to a golden brown on all sides.
5. Drain and eat hot.
6. For Tempura: Mix all ingredients with a fork (I mix my dry ingredients first-then add water and eggs) Feel free to use cold beer in place of water-adds depth to the batter.
