Beer-Battered Scallion Fries Are The New Onion Rings!

• 4 bunches scallions
• 1 lighter-colored beer, like Modelo or Rolling Rock
• 1 egg
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon salt, plus some extra to sprinkle on top when finished
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup chili garlic paste
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil

1. Mix your dipping sauce ingredients, cover and set aside.
2. Trim your scallions into bite-sized pieces.
3. Even when scallions are cooked, the outermost layers can be a little tough to bite all the way through, so cut them small enough to work as a single bite.
4. Fill your pan with 2 inches of vegetable oil (or any similar high-heat oil), and while that's heating up, mix your batter.
5. Toss the scallions into the batter.
6. Pull out a few at a time, tap off the extra batter, and gently drop them into the hot oil, poking at them a little to separate them (fry them in batches so you don't overfill your pan).
7. They're done when they're crisp and golden remove and drain briefly on a layer of paper towels.
8. Sprinkle a little more salt on them immediately after removing them from the pan.
9. Serve hot with the dipping sauce.
