Directions

1. Heat a pan to melt the lard / cooking coconut oil.

2. Add the Panda Flour, whey protein powder, salt and baking powder to a mixing bowl. Whisk together to remove any lumps.

3. Add the eggs and whisk again to form a very thick batter.

4. Now add the water, starting with 50ml but adding more if needed, to create a batter that is fairly loose - it should fall off the whisk quite easily.

5. Add your protein of choice to another mixing bowl and pour some of the batter on top. We used around two thirds of the batter for 400g chicken breast. Use enough to create a good coating around each piece.

6. Check the lard / cooking coconut oil has reached 180°C. Once it has, add a couple of coated pieces to the oil. Allow them to cook for a few minutes before using a pair of tongs to turn them over. Be sure to check the temperature of the protein with a cooking thermometer. Once fully cooked, transfer them to a bowl with some kitchen towel to absorb any excess oil.
