This first time I heard of this I thought to myself you got to be kidding but this is a totally wonderful dessert and can be presented in a most elegant setting or a casual one. The recipe is one that comes from a resturant called Farradday's. I am lucky enough to know one of the chefs who worked there and was nice enough to share the recipe with me. Ingredients:
1 pint fresh strawberries |
1 cup plain flour |
1 egg |
1 cup milk |
1 cup graham cracker crumbs |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
granulated sugar |
oil (for frying) |
whipped cream |
mint sprig (optional) |
Directions:
1. Wash and stem strawberries and pat dry with paper towels. 2. Put flour in a shallow dish. 3. Beat egg and milk together in a bowl. 4. Mix cinnamon and graham cracker crumbs in a shallow dish. 5. Dredge Strawberries in flour, then in egg/milk and then roll in graham cracker mixture. 6. Have enough oil heated for deep frying. 7. Deep fry strawberries for 1 to 2 minutes or until coating is crisped. 8. Drain on paper towels and roll in sugar. 9. Place strawberries (about 4 per serving depending on size of berries) on a plate with small dollops of whipped cream between and garnish with mint. |
