March 31, 2009 3:50 pm Pastry and dessertsWe used to it watermelon fresh, but Chinese cuisine offers you an easy and unusual recipe – fried watermelon with icing sugar.
¾ pound fresh watermelon with rind
2 oz wheat flour
1 egg
2 oz corn starch
2 oz sugar
2 oz ice crumbs
1/3 oz powdered sugar
1. Combine flour, egg, starch and sugar in a bowl and stir. Add ice and some water if needed and stir again.
2. Slice watermelon pulp in triangle pieces and roll in batter. Fry in a deep-fryer and lay out on a paper napkin to let the excess oil soak into it.
3. Serve up with powdered sugar.
