Instructions

  • Make the aioli by whisking the egg yolks with the vinegar and add some seasoning. Gradually whisk in the oil until you have a thick glossy mayonnaise. Season with lemon juice to taste and set aside.
  • To make the light batter, mix the Cornish Sea Salt and Luxury Pepper with plain flour. Gradually whisk in the fizzy water.
  • For the chicken, heat the oil in a deep pan to 180c, dip the chicken into the batter mix and ensure it is covered. Once covered, deep fry the chicken in the pan until golden brown and cooked through (about 6-8 minutes).
  • Serve with the aioli.
