Critical Success Points

  • Sauerkraut gründlich ausdrücken, sonst wird die Masse zu feucht.
  • Mischung nach dem Hinzufügen von Sauerkraut bis zum Verschwinden von weißen Cremespuren mischen.
  • Kühlen der Masse, damit sie fest genug zum Formen ist.
  • Panieren: Mehl → Ei‑Wasser → Panko, gleichmäßig bedecken.
  • Öl auf exakt 175 °C erhitzen und Temperatur während des Frittierens halten.

Safety Warnings

  • Heißes Öl kann schwere Verbrennungen verursachen – immer Handschuhe und lange Zange benutzen.
  • Thermometer nicht in Kontakt mit Wasser bringen, um Kurzschluss zu vermeiden.
