Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy (actually not that easy)

As you may know i am one who likes cooking, and so again i will be posting another one of my recipes (although this is the first time I've cooked it, and we'll have to see how it turns out) Anyway if you're not into food, then i have a music suggestion instead and if you like both then feel free to take both. So over the last few days I've revisited the music of Bat for Lashes, i found their music a few years back whilst watching Jools Holland and haven't regretted that moment since. I don't know what more i can really say about it though apart from it is quite a uniqu-ish style so instead of me trying to explain, just give them a listen, you never know you could actually like it.

Lemon Fried Chicken

  1. Marinade chicken with soy sauce (either light or dark or even a mix of both)
  2. Make the batter with an egg and roughly a tablespoon of flour, then add water until desired consistency (can't explain what this really is but hopefully you can decide for yourself) (optional chinese five spice can be added at this point)
  3. Chuck all the chicken pieces into the batter and cover thoroughly, whilst warming some oil in a pan.
  4. Once the oil is hot, chuck the battered chicken into the pan, and break up the pieces from each other
  5. In another pan add chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon slices and sugar, simmer for some time
  6. Serve the chicken with rice or noodles and pour the lemon sauce over.
Yeah, after making it the sauce really didn't turn out well. However fear not for the recipe still works as fried chicken, or infact any batter fried meat/vegetable/object you wish, and i will work on the lemon sauce to make it work or at least taste reasonable.
