Recipes

Peel medium potatoes, if desired, and cut into ¼ to ½ inch thick strips. Place into large bowl and cover with hot tap water. Soak potato strips for 15

minutes or until ready to fry. Rinse, drain, and pat dry with paper towels. Because uncooked potatoes contain a high percentage of moisture, extreme

care must be used when deep frying. Thoroughly dry potato strips before frying.

Fill the basket ½ rather than ⅔ full. Keeping the cover open, lower the filled basket slowly into the hot oil. If the oil starts to boil up too quickly, lift

the basket out of the oil for a couple of seconds. Then slowly lower again. Repeat as necessary until the basket is completely lowered into the fryer.

Close cover.

Fry at 340° for 6 to 7 minutes until fries are cooked through but not browned. Drain; let stand to cool for at least 10 minutes, but not more than 2 hours.

Just before serving, fry potatoes at 375° for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.

1½ cups finely chopped roasted peanuts

¼ cup cornstarch

½ teaspoon sugar

½ teaspoon ground ginger

Preheat oil in deep fryer at 375°.

Put peanuts in a medium shallow bowl; reserve. Mix cornstarch, sugar, and ginger in another small shallow bowl; whisk in egg whites and lemon juice.

Dip chicken strips into egg mixture, then coat with peanuts. Drop a few chicken bites at a time into the deep fryer. Fry about 1 minute or until golden

brown.
