Oriental Fry Batter

BACK | PRINT  

Batter Mix:
   2 Eggs, beaten
   3/4 tsp Salt
   1/2 tsp Garlic Powder, or fresh Garlic, finely minced
   1/2 cup all-purpose Flour
   1/4 cup Cornstarch
   1/2 cup Milk
Marinate Sauce:
   1 tsp fresh Ginger, crushed in press or grated
   1 Tbsp Honey
   1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
   2 Tbsp Sherry

Directions:
Mix honey, lemon juice, sherry and ginger together and marinate shrimp, halibut, or scallops for at least 15 minutes.

Mix eggs, salt, garlic, flour, cornstarch, and milk to make a smooth batter. 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, halibut, or scallops.
