Prawn pakoras

These make a delicious canape, or satisfying starter. The great thing is that you can prepare the batter a few hours before your guests arrive and simply fry them at the last minute.

In a bowl combine the flour, water and bicarb to create a light batter.In a food processor, lightly pulse the remaining ingredientsuntil finely chopped.

Remove and fold into the batter.

Place in the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour. Drop teaspoons of the mixture, one at a time, into pre-heatedoil and fry for approximately 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Remove and drain on a paper towel.

Sprinkle with a pinch of NoMU Masala Rub and serve immediately with sweet chilli sauce or chutney.

NOTE:

Make sure your oil is not too hot otherwise they will burn on the outside and still be raw on the inside.

Fry the pakoras in batches of no more than eightso that the oil does not cool down too much, but stays at a constant temperature.
