Batter For Frying - Oriental Recipe - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    BATTER
    2 eggs, beaten
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1/2 teaspoon fresh garlic, finely minced
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    1/4 cup cornstarch
    1/2 cup milk
    MARINADE
    1 tablespoon honey
    1 teaspoon lemon juice
    2 tablespoons sherry wine
    1 teaspoon fresh gingerroot, put thru garlic press
Preparation
    Mix eggs, salt, garlic, flour, cornstarch, and milk to make a smooth batter.
    Mix honey, lemon juice, sherry and ginger together and marinate shrimp (split in back), lobster (cut in cubes), chicken (cut in pieces 1\" x 2\"), or thin-sliced pork for at least 15 minutes.
    Fry dipped pieces in peanut oil until light brown.
    OPTION:
    Cool fried pieces after frying, then refrigerate, if desired, and later redip in batter, refry until golden brown. Even crunchier, and great as appetizers for a party that you can prepare ahead and still serve HOT at the last minute! It makes enough batter for 1 lb. of Shrimp, Lobster Meat, Chicken or Pork.
