Number Of Ingredients 11

2 to 2 1/2 pounds small frog legs
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tray of crushed ice
2 cups vegetable oil or shortening (for deep frying)
1/3 cup milk
2 eggs, separated
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Dash of salt and freshly ground black pepper
Optional: dash cayenne pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Wash frog legs thoroughly. Place in a large bowl; sprinkle with lemon juice, and cover with crushed ice. Refrigerate the frog's legs for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Heat the oven to 200 F or warm setting.
  • In a deep saucepan or skillet or deep fryer, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil or melted shortening to 375 F.
  • Line a large rimmed baking pan with paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, egg yolks, and 2 teaspoons oil.
  • Beat the egg whites until stiff; fold into milk and egg yolk mixture.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour and garlic powder; blend well.
  • Sprinkle the frog legs with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and a little cayenne pepper, if using; dip each frog's leg in milk-egg mixture, then dredge in the flour and garlic powder mixture to coat thoroughly.
  • Working in batches, fry the coated frog legs in the hot fat until golden brown, about 2 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to the paper towel-lined pan to drain. Put them in the preheated oven to keep warm while frying subsequent batches.

Butter Fragranced Frog Legs image

This is a very popular dish in most Asian seafood restaurants. The crispy breaded frog legs blend very well with the melted garlic butter sauce. I serve mine on a platter garnished with lettuce leaves, sliced tomatoes, and lime wedges. Enjoy!
