Mix together all the ingredients(except oil) to form a smooth batter.

Heat oil in a wok or frying pan on a medium flame.

Test with a piece of bread: should fry up crisp, without burning.

Spoon in 1 tbsp of batter at a time. Do not crowd.

When batter plumps up and rises to the surface, turn over with a slotted spoon, turn again.

Drain well on paper towels.

Let cool completely before storing in a clean, dry tin.

:- Serve within 1 week.
