If you’re dipping flower first go egg>flower>egg>breadcrumbs. but it could be the flower that’s f’in it up … just try egg then bread crumbs if the first one doesn’t work. Also try mixing the egg with a little milk and wisk.

You know you have to “pat” the bread crumbs on right? You shouldn’t be just dipping the chicken in … you should be putting the chicken in the bowl of bread crumbs, totally covering the thing and squishing the crumbs on so they stay there. If you do this method even the flower/egg/bread crumb order should work.

Flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. Using smallish tupperware/sandwich boxes helps – put the flour in one, egg in the other, breadcrumbs in the third, and go dipping from one to the other (each side so it gets properly coated). Made schnitzel the other day out of pork loins that I pounded flat… nummy stuff!

Blaaad….don’t he wasting time and effort on preparation. Call oasis take away and order there XL gojons and chips meal for £4.50, you can even get a can Rubicon innit.

Bugger.

It is an art to make a coating sticky enough to get the bread crumbs to stay on, but not TOO sticky so you can’t handle it.

Here’s a tip; Gram is I think Hindi for the flour made by grinding up chickpeas. It goes INCREDIBLY sticky when a bit of water is applied. Use too much though and you will be spending a lot of time scraping it off your fingers.

If you find regular flour not producing such great results, try Gram or Corn flour. Different adhesive levels to plain or self raising flour.
