Crunchy broccoli fritters

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

Canola oil, for deep-frying
60 g cake flour
65 g cornflour
1 free-range egg
1½ soda water, or enough make a pancake-like batter
Salt, to taste
1 broccoli head, broken into florets

Method

Heat the oil in a deep saucepan. Place the flour, cornflour, egg, soda water and salt in a large mixing bowl and whisk together to form a batter.

Dip the broccoli florets into the batter, then deep-fry for 2 minutes or until the broccoli begins to brown and the batter begins to crisp.

Cook’s note: These are delicious served with a spicy dipping sauce. Mix good-quality mayonnaise, plain yoghurt, finely chopped anchovies and garlic and chilli paste. Cauliflower can be used instead of broccoli, or you can use both.
