Fried Dill Pickles

For my bff, who needed a good recipe. I don't have any pictures for it, but it's good enough to try, I swear.

1 cup flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tsp baking powder
1+1/2 tsp paprika
1/2-1 tsp garlic power
1 egg yolk
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup ice water
2 tbs dill pickle juice
4 cups drained dill pickles
Oil for frying

1. In a bowl with a lid, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, and garlic powder.
2. Make a well in the middle and add yolk, water, and pickle juice.
3. Whisk together until smooth.
4. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
5. Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a deep pan.
6. If you like a thinner coating on your pickles, dip drained pickle slices in batter and fry for about 5 minutes or until golden brown.
7. If you like a thicker coating on your pickles, dredge your drained pickle slices in plain flour, then batter and fry.
8. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Serve warm with ranch dressing. Enjoy!
