Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the club soda, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Add the cheese curds to the prepared batter and gently coat them on all sides.
- Warm the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or skillet over medium heat. Using a deep-fry thermometer, monitor the temperature until it reaches 360F. Carefully add the battered cheese curds and fry for approximately 1 minute, flipping halfway through the cooking process. Once fried, transfer the cheese curds to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Offer the freshly fried cheese curds with your choice of marinara or another preferred dipping sauce.
