It comes out delightfully crunchy. I don't make batters either. I wet
meat with water and just dredge it lightly in a spiced mix of rice
flour, corn starch or arrowroot, then deep fry in peanut oil. A LOT of
it falls off into the oil and if I want to salvage the oil when I'm
done, I run it thru one of those cloth mesh coffee filters to clean it
out. Works a treat too.
And due to the very light coating, the meat (or whatever) absorbs very
little oil and I get a nice crispy coating.
