Good but nothing to write home about. Anyone got suggestions about how to do this right? Also any interesing suggestions for the spice mix?

You might want to turn the heat up a little. I usually do a cajun or garlic & salt spice mix.

They continue to cook after your remove them from the pan, so take them out just as they start to change color. You can always cook them more, but even one burned black spot will make them inedible. Drain them on a couple of layers of flattened brown paper bags (which absorb oil much better than paper towels). Fri Dec 01 22:12:23 -0800 2006 2059952 10539 KRS
