My co-worker Brad Barnes passed along this recipe. He's writing a column about it for tomorrow's paper.
Here in the Deep South, we are prone to fry anything. ANY. THING.
In that spirit, here's a recipe for fried celery:
Ingredients: 1 bunch of celery
2 tsp. corn flour
150 ml milk (.0338 fl oz)
7 Tbsp. flour
Oil for deep frying
Salt and pepper to taste
Method: Wash the celery and cut into 2-inch pieces. In a bowl of milk, gradually add the flour and corn flour, taking care that no lumps form. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a pot of boiling water, place the celery for hardly a minute and drain out the water. Then heat oil in a pan. Dip celery in the batter and fry until light brown. Drain and serve immediately.

One observations from mom: while this sounds good, no one she knows measures anything in ml. In fact, no one she knows measures anything!
