ingredients:
- 1/2 pound cod fillets
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- a little flour
- salad oil for deep frying
- a little salt (optional)
coating:
- 1 egg
- 1/6 cup cold water
- 2/3 ounce flour
step 1:
Cut the cod into bite-size pieces.
step 2:
To make the coating, mix the egg and cold water in a bowl. Add the flour and toss.
step 3:
Dust the cod pieces lightly with 1 teaspoon curry powder before applying the coating (see Step 4).
step 4:
With chopsticks, dip the cod pieces into the coating and twirl them around to coat them. Fill a wok over half full with salad oil.
step 5:
Heat the oil to 340 °F and deep-fry 3 or 4 cod pieces a few minutes until golden brown. Remove and drain on a rack. Cook the remaining cod in the same manner.
If desired, sprinkle a little salt on top.
comment:
Curry powder makes normally plain-tasting cod more delicious, and one's appetite is aroused.
