Ingredients:
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
2 cups crushed corn flake cereal |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
generous pinch seasoned salt, such as lawry's |

1 quart sunflower oil |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, mix the buttermilk and balsamic vinegar.
2. In another medium bowl, combine the cereal, flour, seasoned salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
3. Fill a large, deep frying pan a little less than half full with oil and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
