Ah Rainee....one of my favorite things - only thing I do differently is dredge them in baking powder - no - that wasn't it....grrrrrr just a minute....*fetching recipe*

*slamming palm into forehead* Cornstarch! Dredge it first in seasoned cornstarch then frothy egg whites then the coconut & panko crumbs.

I use a wonderful Red Pepper Sauce....mmmmmmmmm oh for summer!

There's a restaurant called 'Hemingway's' here in Hilton Head, that serves these with a dip made of


-prepared horseradish
-orange marmalade

That's it! Wonderful! Add the horseradish to your taste.
