Stir fried frog legs



Few days back, had been to a Vietnamese restaurant here in Abidjan and there was this fried frog legs on the menu. Everybody (except me) wanted to try that and they really enjoyed it. Every time, I used to see this frog legs in the supermarket, but never knew what it was cause the legs were folded and almost resembled clams or something of that sort???!!! I mean yes! For the 1st time in my life, I tried to prepare stir fried frog legs and the efforts were well appreciated. Though it almost looked like pan fried chicken which I usually prepare, I had used little more ingredients as well. Here goes the recipe...

Ingredients:
Frog legs - 12 nos
Onions - 1 nos
Ginger - garlic paste - 1 tsp
Chilly powder - 1 tbsp
Pepper powder - 1 tsp
Dark soya sauce - 1/4 tsp
Oyster sauce - 1 tsp
Salt for taste

Method:
Heat oil in a wok, Add finely chopped onions and fry till golden brown. Add ginger-garlic paste and saute for a min. Add chilly powder and stir well. Add the frog legs, and stir fry till its almost done (can add little water if required). Add the remaining ingredients and stir fry till its done and completely dry. Serve hot.

Note:
Can follow pan fried chicken recipe as well.
