Ingredients
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 3 slices ginger
- ¼ cup ketchup
- ¾ cup white vinegar
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 lb turkey thighs deboned
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup water
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- 2 cups canola oil for frying
Instructions
-
In a small pot, heat 1 tbsp of oil on low heat and fry ginger until fragrant. Add ketchup to pot and cook until caramelized (around 1 min), stir constantly. Add vinegar and sugar to the pot and reduce until thickened.
-
While the sauce is reducing, cut the deboned turkey thigh into 1 inch cubes.
-
Combine egg, water, salt, pepper and flour to form a light batter.
-
In a wok (or dutch oven) filled with 2-3 inches of canola oil, heat oil to 350°F. Dip and coat each turkey piece in batter and gently place into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F, around 5 minutes.
-
Serve with sweet and sour dipping sauce.
