Vegetable oil for deep-frying

(For the tartare sauce)
100 ml mayonnaise
1 boiled egg

Use the tip of the blade to cut through the whitish sinews. Cut the chicken into pieces about 4– 5 cm in size. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Crack and beat 2 eggs in a bowl. Add some flour to another bowl.
3. Add enough vegetable oil to a pan to come about 3 cm up the sides. Heat to 160ºC. Coat the chicken in the flour, patting off any excess. Dip the chicken in the beaten egg, ensuring the pieces get well coated, and then add the chicken to the hot oil. Fry for 3 – 4 minutes, turning occasionally. Once the pieces bob to the surface, increase the temperature to 170ºC. Remove the chicken and drain on a wire rack. Lay the chicken in the dipping sauce for 1 -2 minutes, ensuring the pieces get coated on both sides.
4. Tear the lettuce into bite-size pieces, cut the cucumber at a slight angle into somewhat thin slices, and cut the tomato into 8 wedges. Arrange the chicken on to plates with some lettuce, cucumber, and tomato, and a dollop of tartare sauce.
