Set up a breading line: flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs — press the crumbs on firmly.

Heat 4-5 cm of oil to 180°C; a breadcrumb dropped in should sizzle straight away.

Drain on a rack, never on paper, and serve hot with thai basil scattered over.
Chef's tip
Keep the oil at a steady 180°C — too cool and the coating goes greasy.
