England is a suburb of Texas too….lol.
+DJS He’s right, she’s in the year book of my great-great mars bar’s.
+DJS Isn’t it obvious?
She was in house slytherin.
A lot of you guys *really* don’t know much about the diversification of
cuisines.
It’s quite traditional for a number of Asian cultures to deep-fry their
vegetables (predominately Thai & Indian).
This isn’t an American thing *at all*.
She’s cute in a I got two hours of sleep kind of way.
Only in America could you sound healthy by deep frying vegetables!
+Giuliano Machado yes because a thin batter is incredibly unhealthy. Never
had tempura?
+J Ackerley Yeah, except she’s right in saying deep frying is healthier
than sauteeing. When the food is deep fried in oil that’s hot enough, the
moisture inside the food will be expelled from the food (hence the
bubbles). Since water and oil don’t mix, the water essentially creates an
impermeable barrier that prevents the food from absorbing much oil.
So as long as the oil is at a high enough temperature, and as long as you
take the food out at the proper time, deep frying really isn’t that bad,
and really won’t be very greasy at all.
+J Ackerley Except Japan has been deep frying vegetables way earlier. Ever
had tempura?
+jetsgo66 so you separate the fried batter from the broccoli right?
