SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN

fathers day meal 2011


So Stewie you and your friends fancy a Chinese meal but budget is tight and there is beer to buy 

This is a compromise , its one of the few occasions I say buy the Sweet n Sour sauce but it has to be Sharwoods the one with no bits we have tried others but that just dont cut muster
So to the batter, your dad is best at this but basically mix together flour water splash of vinegar and a pinch of turmeric to give a golden colour



The secret is to keep it really thick then simply dip your chicken strips into the batter and deep fry. It is really important that you do not use the basket in the fryer when you do his all they will stick you almost have to dip the first part in for a few seconds before letting go

now just serve with rice , remember to put it in a wee mould to tip out to make it look nice now even your dad who "does not do poncy" does this

heat your sauce up in the microwave and spoon over cooked chicken

you can use this batter for fish and spam too
