While this recipe was originally for chicken, it is a proven winner substituting fresh walleye. Serve with rice cooked in chicken stock (instead of water). Set the table with soy sauce and garlic chili sauce. Fortune cookies for desert.
1) Heat oil in deep fryer to 375 degrees.
2) Beat eggs in large mixing bowl. Add chicken or fish. Sprinkle with salt, 1 1/2 teaspoon sugar and white pepper. Mix well. Mix in 1 1/2 cup cornstarch a little at a time until meat is well coated.
3) In batches, careful drop the meat cubes into the hot oil one by one cooking until golden brown and they begin to float (about 3 minutes). After all the meat has been fried, allow it to cool then refry it starting with the first batch fried. Cook until it turns a deep golden brown (about 2 minutes more).
4) Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in green onion, garlic, whole chilies and orange zest. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes until garlic is golden and chilies brighten. Add 3/4 cup sugar, ginger, chicken stock, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil and peanut oil. Bring to a boil and cook 3 minutes.
5) Dissolve 3 teaspoons of cornstarch into water. Stir into the boiling sauce. Return to a boil and cook until the sauce thickens and is no longer cloudy from the cornstarch (about 1 minute). Stir the meat into the boiling sauce. Reduce heat to low and cook for 1-2 minutes and serve.
If a wok is not available, use a cast iron skillet.
