Fear fried foods no longer! Southern fried chicken, mozzarella sticks, crispy crab cakes--these are the foods we crave but are afraid to indulge in (and are sometimes afraid to make).Fry Light, Fry Right provides a long-awaited antidote to the healthy food doldrums: 120 easy, mouthwatering recipes for foods with fried flavor and texture that are good for you, too! Elaine Magee, an anti-dieting dietician, show us "recipe makeover" techniques that cut the bad stuff without cutting the flavor and texture. Her seemingly decadent but actually quite sane almost-fried foods are sure to dazzle: from appetizers like Coconut Shrimp with Mango Salsa to sides like Garlicky Ballpark Fries to nearly sinless desserts like Devil's Food Donuts. And her techniques are simple, requiring little more than a hot oven or pan, a very small amount of oil, and readily available ingredients.
