Simple Fried Snack

Yesterday,I decide to fried some simple and easy snack for us.It's been a long time ,I didn't use my electric deep fryer.I moved the fryer from kitchen counter top to the top of microwave when Elliot work on kitchen tin tile backsplash.I won't use it while sitting on top of microwave,it's too dangerous with Mishu walk in and out of my kitchen all the time.Now I move back to kitchen counter top and now is the right time to use it.All the windows and doors have to closed tightly all the time now when heat is "on".Wow!! it's really cold and freezing...30 plus F at night and 40 plus F at day time.The good things about this deep fryer are the oil won't splatter everywhere with lid, have timer and different food temperature to set accordingly to what I cook.Look what I fried for our snack below!!
I wrapped some meat wonton with water chestnut.I like the food color of electric deep fryer compare with gas stove,more evenly golden brown.
I moved my electric deep fryer,toaster and coffeemaker back to kitchen counter.I rarely use these 3 items.Most of the time I drink instant coffee or hubby will buy from Dunkin Donut. I season 6 pieces of chicken whole leg with garlic powder,sugar,salt and pepper for overnight.Firstly,I coated the chicken with dry flour , dipped into milk powder and egg and lastly coated with corn flour mix wheat flour and salt.I ask this recipe from a chef who used to cook in American Chinese restaurant.I love their fried chicken wing from take out restaurant.Chef told me the key is garlic powder,so I bought a super big container of garlic powder!!.
This whole leg is the last of the 6 legs I fried.The only things I don't like about this fryer is after frying each time,I have to wash and sieved the oil.If I don't sieved the oil and wash the fryer the food won't look fresh and good,in fact it's look soggy with old oil .I bought this fryer in macys at sale 2 years ago near Christmas season.It's not really expensive ,under $50.If you like to eat fry food most of the time,get a electric deep fryer as a Christmas gift for yourself.

I wish it's taste like KFC one.But KFC staff have no idea what is the ingrendients in their seasoning coz all the seasoning come from poultry.Yes,KFC use pressure fryer too that why the chic cooked in 15 min.I worked in KFC B4.Nowdays KFC chicken is so expensive and small even with promotion bucket.
