INGREDIENTS
1.5lbs starchy peeled
2 cups self rising flour, plus extra for coating
Pinch baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground white pepper
2 cups water
Sea salt and malt vinegar to serve
METHOD
1. Fill the deep fryer with 4 quarts of oil
and preheat to 355°F.

place into a bowl of water with juice of a
lemon to prevent them from browning.

4 cups of the water. Mix to form a
smooth batter the consistency of thick
cream. Add remaining water if batter
becomes too thick. Set aside.

4–5 floured slices into the batter. Using
tongs, carefully lower slices into hot
