Cook time is NOT passive so I didn't enter any specific time. Ingredients:
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 |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
2 tablespoons sherry wine |
1 teaspoon fresh gingerroot, put thru garlic press |
Directions:
1. Mix eggs, salt, garlic, flour, cornstarch, and milk to make a smooth batter. 2. 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. 3. Fry dipped pieces in peanut oil until light brown. 4. OPTION: 5. 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. |
