Wow, another use for Sour Dough Starter.

Replace Egg and Breadcrumbs with Sour Dough Starter.
I have been using RTE method for ‘ breading ‘ food such as schnitzel.  This is egg, flour and milk combined and the  food then coated in breadcrumbs.
Today I mixed KFC spice mix, ( posted), with Sour Dough Starter and used this to coat sliced Chicken breasts, I then dipped them in Panko crumbs.  I cooked these in a shallow amount of Ricebran oil.
The joy of this is no egg and no milk, for those who have an intolerance to either or one of these.
I cannot tell any difference. Of course, you don’t have to add the KFC but could add salt and pepper. 

1 dessertspoon of KFC powder
3/4 cup starter.
Mix together.
 
I will try spraying with oil and baking in AF.

AF works.  Spray schnitzel with oil.  Heat AF 3 minutes.  Place schnitzel on wire, bake at 180 for 8 minutes, turn, bake for 3 to 5 minutes.

What a great idea. I can't wait to use it.
I used some starter the other day to make some cracker biscuits. They were consumed before I had even thought to take a photo.

This time I added some Italian herbs and garlic salt into the mix.

Those crackers look good.  David Jones in Melbourne sell sheet of them in packets.  Very expensive.
Cookie, I thought of you with the air fried KFC.

Great idea Chookie, I must try that.  Today I had a good clean out out my spice drawers, so much stuff well out of date that I had to get rid of including a few tablespoons of your KFC spice mix.  I would have kept it to use as you have today if you had posted the recipe yesterday LOL.  I have other chicken spice mixes I can use though.  No time to cook meals for myself at the moment as I am doing my spring cleaning ready for the window cleaner on Tuesday and trading table goodies in between that.

A fantastic idea Chookie. Your cooked Schnitzel looks delicious. 😋

CC, I did give it a good spray with Rice Bran oil but probably not as much as the shallow fried version.
Judy, a lot of my spices are out of date but as they only lose their pungency and don’t go off I just increase the amount used.

Good idea Chookie but some of mine were many years out of date.

Judy, the last of the KFC was 4 years old and still good.

Too late she cried!  Darn it.

Don’t cry, you will know for next time.  Also buy whole spices as the ground ones have a filler to stop them clumping together.
