Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients

    • In a big mixing bowl, add sifted plain flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp turmeric powder and 50 ml water. If the mixture is too dry, slowly add 2 tsp water at a time until the mixture is thick and without lumps.


  2. Add the rest of the ingredients

    • Add minced garlic, chopped dried shrimps, thinly sliced large red chili and sliced spring onions. Mix it well.
    • Add peeled and coarsely chopped prawns and bean sprouts. Fold in the mixture.

    You may substitute bean sprouts with any vegetable of your choice



  3. Deep-fry mixture

    • In a pan, heat up enough oil for deep-frying. Slowly drop 1 tablespoon of mixture and deep-fry for 2 minutes or until brown. Remove from pot and drain excess oil on a paper towel-lined plate.

    | To prevent mixture from sticking to the spoon, dip the spoon in oil before scooping up the mixture
