Fried: Chicken, Mushrooms, Cheese, Whatever

Ingredients:
(for the batter)
1 egg
1/4 liter condensed milk (any milk works fine, but the condensed milk helps it stick better)
Spices (anything you want really...)

3 cups flour
4-6 cups vegetable oil
Chicken breasts, mushrooms, onions, cheeses (mozzarella, camembert, etc), zucchini, any other food you may want to fry...

1. Cut any larger cheeses or vegetables into bite-size pieces.
2. Mix the egg, milk, and spices in a large bowl.
3. Dip the "item" in the batter, then in the flour, into the batter again, and a final time in the flour.
4. Place the "item" in the heated oil in a frying pan. Wait to flip the "item" until it is golden brown on one side. The less you move the things you are frying, the better it is.
5. Flip it, making sure both sides cook evenly and are both a golden brown to brown color.
6. Place it on a napkin on a plate to remove excess oil.

Two new friends of mine here in Germany, Sean and John, love making fried chicken on Fridays. My vegetarianism isn't so keen on chicken, so Annie and I decided to fry other things. Among them, cheese, mushrooms and onions and we are planning on trying lots of other veggies in the future. It's a great recipe, since it is pretty easy, and super flexible. All the food turned out great when we had it, Sean/John being so good at cooking/breading the items.

Although the title of this blog states "my attempts to make them healthier," sometimes it's nice just to be a glutton. :)
