WOW! My mother is a HUGE strawberry fan, so I had to give this a try. This was one of those recipes that looks so odd that it just might work lol. I never thought of frying berries before in a batter... but man were they good! I served these along side Fresh Fruit Macedonia. I plan on making these again... well my family members are forcing me too! Made for ZWT 3!
