I must say it's not my own, I got it off another website but don't know if I should or am allowed to give credit to the person who this recipes belongs to. Please advise as I am new to this site.
As for how I prepared it, I tried doing it exactly as the recipe said. I tried the method of flour, egg, flour. I tried just egg and flour. I also tried just flour. None of those methods worked. I appreciate your suggestions and help! Thanks!
