Tips:
1. Ensure that the oil is heated to the right temperature before adding the food items. If the oil is not hot enough, the food will absorb more oil and become soggy.
2. Don’t overcrowd the fryer or pot as this will lower the oil temperature and cause the food to cook unevenly.
3. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the fried food from the oil and place them onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
4. You can add other ingredients like calamari rings, onion rings, or mushrooms to the mix as per your preference.
