Ingredients

1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
2 large egg whites
2 tablespoons milk
1 pound turkey breasts, cut into 1/2 inch strips
2 tablespoons harissa paste
vegetable oil to deep fry
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 scallion thinly sliced
lime wedges to serve

Directions

1

Combine flour and sesame seeds on a large plate. Whisk egg whites and milk in a medium bowl. Brush turkey with 2 tbsp harissa paste. Dip into egg white mixture; let excess drain off. Coat in flour mixture. Place on a plate. Cover with plastic wrap. Chill 15 minutes.
2

In a large heavy-based saucepan, heat oil over moderately high heat (oil is ready when a cube of bread crisps quickly without absorbing oil). Deep-fry turkey, in batches, 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and cooked. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Place on a serving plate.
3

Whisk mayonnaise, 3 tsp harissa and lime juice in a small bowl. Season to taste. Sprinkle turkey with scallion. Serve with mayonnaise mixture and lime wedges.
