Re: Deep Fried Watermelon
HJ, love you recipes, well most of them anyway. But man, somehow this watermelon fried is just wrong. But I would try it. Heck I will try most anything one time. CF
OK, get over it, you lost. God bless America

Re: Deep Fried Watermelon
This is definitely a first for me. Never heard of it, but then I would have thought someone was crazy for deep frying ice cream a few years ago.
