Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 cup | All-purpose flour |
| 3 tbsp | Sugar |
| 2 tsp | Salt |
| 1 tsp | Bicarbonate of soda |
| 1/2 cup | Bean sprouts |
| 1 | Leek |
| 1/2 | Onion |
| 1 | Red chili pepper |
| 1 cup | Corn kernel |
| Adjust | Water |
Instructions:
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and bicarbonate of soda. Add the bean sprouts, finely chopped leek, onion, red chili pepper, and corn kernels. Stir everything together until well combined.
-
Mix Thoroughly: Pour in a cup of warm water and mix the ingredients thoroughly using a spoon. Ensure that all the ingredients are fully incorporated, which should take approximately 1 minute of stirring.
-
Adjust Consistency: If the mixture appears too thick, gradually add more water until you achieve the desired consistency. The mixture should be thick enough to spoon into hot oil for deep frying.
-
Deep Fry: Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Using a spoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the fritter mixture into the hot oil. Fry the fritters until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside, ensuring they are cooked through.
-
Serve: Once cooked, remove the fritters from the oil and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve the prawn and corn fritters hot, alongside your favorite dipping sauce such as chili sauce, satay sauce, or ketchup.
These prawn and corn fritters are bursting with flavor and are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. Enjoy them as a delicious breakfast treat or as a delightful snack for any time of the day! 🌟
