Ingredients with Measurements:
- 1 pound of sausage links
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 egg
- Vegetable oil for frying
Special Equipment Needed:
- Deep fryer or a large pot for frying

Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and milk together.
3. Dip each sausage link into the egg and milk mixture, then coat it in the flour mixture. Repeat this process until all the sausages are coated.

Substitutions for ingredients:

Tips and Tricks:
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the sausages to the fryer to ensure they cook evenly and become crispy.
- Do not overcrowd the fryer or pot with too many sausages at once, as this can cause the temperature of the oil to drop and result in soggy sausages.
