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.
