Ingredients
-
3 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
-
1 apple - peeled, cored, and cut into chunks
-
¾ cup cornstarch
-
1 tablespoon water, divided
-
1 egg, beaten
-
oil for frying
-
¾ cup white sugar
-
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
-
½ teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Directions
-
Pour flour into a shallow bowl. Dredge apple chunks in flour.
-
Mix cornstarch and 2 teaspoons water thoroughly in a small bowl. Mix in egg.
-
Heat oil in a large saucepan to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Dip apple chunks in the cornstarch mixture; cook in the hot oil until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate using a slotted spoon.
-
Combine sugar, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, and remaining 1 teaspoon water in a separate saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until sugar melts, turns light golden, and starts to bubble, 8 to 10 minutes. Mix in fried apple chunks until evenly coated with caramel.
-
Transfer caramel-coated apple chunks to a large serving dish; lift with chopsticks to separate and create sugar threads. Garnish with sesame seeds.
