| "Ling" cooking is a process which might be called "splash frying". In other words, the food is not actually immersed in the oil during the frying; instead it is suspended above the oil, and a ladle is to pour and splash the food with hot oil which is then allowed to run down into the pan containing the oil. A well known dish cooked in this manner is "Yiu Ling Chi" (Splash Fried Chicken). |
