Credit where credit is due: Original of this came from gatekeeper.dec.com, and was blended with other of the same genre to produce what you see here. Notes from the Chef: "The recipe is simple enough, but the interesting part is the cornstarch and egg mixture for breading. When twice fried this makes the extra-crisp coating that one generally associates with this dish. (but that works well with others, like sesasme chicken as well)"
After downloading it seemed to need cleaning up. The ingredient list was edited so each one would appear on a single, rather than mulitiple lines. Also re-did the instructions to seperate activities into different paragraphs to divide the various steps. All else ramained as it was.
