1 cup corn oil for frying
1 cup flour

Mix the flour with salt and pepper. Dip the meat in the flour, then the milk and flour again. Heat a frying pan with the oil until it is hot, 350 degrees F. Place the snake and half onions in the oil and fry a few pieces at a time, just don’t put too many in the pan, you want to keep the temperature at 350 all the time.
