Indonesian Bakwan Sayur (Vegetable Fritters)

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine all purpose flour, rice flour, salt, sugar, and ground pepper. Add water and mix well, make sure there are no lumps.

Step 2

Add grated garlic and egg into the batter. Mix well.

Step 3

Add shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, and sliced scallions into the batter and mix well.

Step 4

Pour enough oil in a pot for deep frying. Once a bit of batter dropped into the oil bubbles immediately, the oil is ready.

Step 5

Use a small ladle, drop the mixture into the hot oil. Deep fry until the fritter is crispy and turns golden brown on both sides, remove and drain on a wire rack/paper towel. Repeat until all batter is used up.
