1 Chicken
1 Egg
2 sl Fresh ginger root
1 Scallion stalk
1/4 c Flour
2 tb Sherry

with flour and sherry. Blend to a smooth batter.

NOTE: This dish is said to date back to 600 A.D. Some cooks prepare it by
disjointing the legs and wings, then chopping breast and back each in half
for a total of 8 pieces. The breast and wings need less cooking than the
drumsticks and should be removed from the hot oil first.
