It was a slow day at work today!!! so I fried everything in site!!
Whenever It’s slow at the restaurant, and I get board, I turn to my interest of making up a new dish or improving on an old staple. The staff loves these days…I cook a lot, and they eat it all!
Today it was national drop it in the fryer day!! Thats always a big hit!!
This time I focused on the all American breakfast, I fried bacon in a pancake batter, Oh yea!!
Then I fried Chicken apple sausage links on sticks like mini breakfast corn dogs, even better!!
After this I turned to the more ambitious ideas bouncing around in my head like deep fried eggs? I first soft boiled the eggs so only the whites were cooked, then chilled them down, peeled them, dusted them with flour, and battered them again with a pancake batter and into the fryer they went!! When they came out the batter was a golden brown, and the yolk was still a bit runny, not my best idea but very interesting!! I think if I poached the egg first then battered it, I might like it more! Next time…
Next came the toast! After toasting my bread I slathered it with jam and you guessed it…It got dredged in batter and into the oil It went!!! This was a winner all around, crispy, sweet loveliness!!
The hash was a bit tricky at first. I wanted to make deep fried potato hash, not potato fritters! It took a while, but I soon got the amount of hash-to-batter ratio down I think! Forming them into patties helped create the illusion as well!
Well there you have it, My “new way to die happy”! A fully deep fried breakfast! I your ever hungover, and not afraid of dying from congestive heart failure, look me up, and I’ll be more than happy to fix you a Deep Fried Country Breakfast… With all the trimmings of course!
All I ask is that you don’t give your doctor my name!!
