  • 140g gram flour or plain flour
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp tumeric
  • 3 green chillli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 1 small mango, peeled and chopped
  • 4 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 200g bag raw peeled prawns, chopped

  • 200ml soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 7frac12; red chilli seeded
  • large knob of ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
  • handful coriander leaves
  1. Tip the flour into a large bowl and stir in the spices and a large pinch of salt. Make a well in the middle, then gradually pour in 100ml water, whisking well until you have a smooth, but very thick batter, similar in consistency to toothpaste. Mix in the mango, spring onion and prawns.
  2. Heat the oil for deep-frying, then drop in spoonfuls of the mix. Fry four at a time for 3-4 mins, until crisp and lightly golden. Drain on kitchen paper and keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
  3. For the dip, blend the chilli ginger and coriander in a food processor until smooth. Mix into the soy and sesame and place into dipping bowl to serve with the fritters.
