1 doz. Chicken Lollipops
juice of half lime/to tase
2 tsp kashmiri chilli powder
1 tsp chilli sauce
 red colour optional
1/2 tsp pepper powder/ to taste
1.5 tbsp ginger garlic paste
salt to taste
oil to fry
1 egg beaten
2 tbsp cornflour


Method:

 Clean wash the chicken lollipops .

Mix the chilli paste,red chilli powder,ginger garlic paste,pepper powder, salt lime and food colour and marinate the lollipops  well for 2 hours.

Whisk the egg along with the cornflour,salt, and some water to make a batter  and dip the lollipops .

Or you could even add the cornflour while marinating and then just dip the lollipops in  lightly beaten eggs and  then fry.

Heat  sufficient oil to deep fry once the oil is hot gently drop the lollipops and fry over medium heat till crispy and cooked .

Drain the excess oil and serve hot with  any sauce you like.

Note:
You could adjust the amount of the chilli paste ,red chilli powder and the pepper according to taste.
You can avoid using egg  instead you could use 1 tbsp flour/maida and 1 tbsp cornflour and marinate.
The flame should be kept medium  while frying as if cooked on high flame the outside will turn crispy but will be uncooked from inside.
Adding food colour is optional.
