Abstract

Fresh root vegetables coat a battered foodstuff for a prefried and deep-frozen food product. The vegetables may be coated with a predusting flour. To prepare the food product, the vegetables, which may include predusting flour, are coated on the battered foodstuff, prefried and then deep-frozen. The battered foodstuff may be fed onto the vegetables on a conveyor and then more vegetables are fed onto the foodstuff.
