Ingredients
pineapple slices 8-10
all-purpose flour 1 cup
granulated sugar 2 tbsp
sesame seeds 1 tsp
turmeric powder, a pinch
granulated sugar
pineapple essence 2 drops (optional)
salt to taste
Method
- Wash, peel and cut thick pineapple roundels. Remove the core with a bottle lid or cookie cutter. Keep aside.
- In another bowl, make a batter. Add the flour, granulated sugar, sesame seeds, salt, turmeric powder and mix well. Pour water little by little to make a thick batter. Add 2 drops of pineapple essence. Mix well.
- Heat a kadai or wok and add oil. When the oil is hot, drop the pineapple slices one by one in the batter. Lift using a spoon and drop in hot oil.
- Using a slotted spoon, flip and cook both sides. Serve warm with some vanilla ice cream topping for best results.
NOTES
* The fritters lose the crunch as it sits, so serve warm.
* Adding sugar to the batter is optional, but sugar gives a sweet, tangy feel to the fritters.
* Adding pineapple essence is strictly optional, it just enhances pineapple flavours.
