Deep Fried Watermelon

Ingredients

• 1 (10 pound) watermelon
• 7 tablespoons cornstarch
• 11 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs whites, beaten
• 3 cups vegetable oil for deep frying

Instructions

1. Cut the watermelon in half and scoop out the pulp. Remove any seeds from the pulp and cut the pulp into diamonds. Coat with the flour.
2. Mix the egg whites with cornstarch and a little water into a batter.
3. Heat the oil in a wok over high heat to about 250 degrees F, or until small bubbles appear around a 1 inch cube of day-old bread dropped into the oil.
4. Dip the watermelon pieces into the batter and add to the oil.
5. Deep fry until the coating becomes firm.
6. Turn off the heat and continue to deep fry the watermelon until light brown.
7. Remove, drain well, sprinkle with the sugar, and serve.
