How to Make Batter For Frying Oriental Recipe

1. Whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cornstarch, and 1/2 cup milk until completely smooth. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon sherry, and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger. Marinate 1 lb of your choice of protein (chicken, shrimp, lobster, or thinly sliced pork) in this mixture for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
3. Heat about 2 inches of peanut oil in a large skillet or wok to 350°F (175°C).
4. Dip the marinated protein pieces into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.
5. Carefully place the battered pieces into the hot oil and fry until light golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
6. (Optional) For extra-crispy results: Cool the fried pieces completely. Re-dip in the batter and refry until golden brown for another 1-2 minutes. This step is great for prepping ahead!
7. Serve immediately and enjoy! This recipe makes enough batter for 1 lb of protein.
