Fried Ice-Cream!

Ever heard of fried ice-cream? Seems like a crazy idea, right? Nope- I hadn't heard of it until I was introduced to it here at a Chinese restaurant. Yes, a Chinese one. I don't know why, because it doesn't seem like it would have originated in China at all and I can't for the life of me figure out how you'd eat it with chop-sticks! Well I've had it a couple times here in PNG and when they ran out before I had a chance to order one on the Senior Retreat, I made it my mission to make my own.
SO over the break my girlfriends & I mastered the recipe. It's surprisingly easy yet tastes so yummy and exotic.

All you do is scoop balls of ice-cream, and make them round (beware- your hands freeeze) and put them in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
Before you get them out you throw corn-flakes, coconut & cinnamon (email me for exact amounts if your curious) in a plastic bag and crush them all up- dump in bowl. Mix eggs and milk in another bowl.
Roll the ice-cream balls in egg then in crumbs then repeat.
Then you just freeze it for at least 3 hours, or over night.
Heat up oil and dump in for about 10-20 seconds.
Add homemade strawberry syrup and some chocolate sauce and enjoy.
It's easy to just keep the balls in the freezer and dump in hot oil whenever you want a quick snack. YUM.

The scoops to be frozen

After the batter mixture is on them. Back in the freezer.

Being fried in the hot oil. Homemade strawberry sauce on the back burner.

Decorated & ready to be devoured

And there you have it: "Fried ice-cream: A tropical vacation for you mouth."

      Did you get the chance to try it? and how did it turn out?!
      Definitely works better after you've tried it once and you realize all the things not to do ;) and get the hang of it.
      Hope it worked :)
      You can also look up other recipes online. There is a lot of variations. I just don't have many of the ingredients required here.
