Why fried chicken is so common but fried beef is nowhere to be found?
In: Other
I agree with the others, it’s not nowhere but its less common as
Chicken has to be cooked throughout to be safe to eat, and so the texture encourages frying in oil, breaded or battered. Fried beef is less common due to the fat content of beef providing a lot of the flavour and it generally being best not completely cooked as it goes tough much quicker than chicken.
There is also not as much fried pork or lamb, but fried fish is very common, I assume due to the texture of the fish meat being more like chicken, whereas pork and lamb are more similar to beef
