MOO Shake'n'Bake
Ingredients:
4 cups plain flour (can be wholemeal or a mix of white and wholemeal)
20 Weetbix (about 4 cups crushed)
4 tbsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
3 tbsp paprika
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Method:
Whizz Weetbix in food processor until very fine crumbs. Combine with all other dry ingredients. Stir through oil, being sure to mix thoroughly. Store in a sealed container in fridge. This mix will last in fridge indefinitely.
To use: Dip meat in any liquid (egg, milk, salad dressing – Italian is nice - etc) then in the shake and bake. Put on baking sheet and bake at 180 degrees for 20-30 minutes for boneless chicken or fish strips, an hour for chicken pieces with bones (i.e., drumsticks and thighs, as long as possible for bone-in breasts).
This mix can also be used to coat steak, rissoles, sausages and fish cakes. To cook these foods after coating, heat a little oil in a frying pan and when hot add food to be cooked. Turn frequently to prevent burning.
Note: You can substitte cracker crumbs or crushed crackers, cornflake crumbs etc for the Weetbix. Or you can use any combination of these things. This is a great way to use up the crumbs left in the bottom of the cereal and biscuit packets. I’ve even used crumbs from BBQ Shapes in the mix.
