This comes from a cookbooklet called Yum Cha and Asian Treats . They are easy to make, and they taste wonderful. Would be excellent served with a side of sweet and sour sauce. Ingredients:
350 g carrots, peeled and sliced |
2 cm piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated |
2 spring onions, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons sesame oil |
1 egg, beaten |
salt and pepper, to taste |
3/4 cup plain flour |
1/3 cup sesame seeds |
oil, for deep frying |
Directions:
1. Cook the carrot in boiling salted water for 15 minutes until just tender. Drain and mash well. Place the ginger in a garlic crusher and squeeze the juice into the mashed carrot. Add the spring onions, sesame oil and egg and season to taste.
2. Shape the carrot mixture into small, walnut-sized balls. Roll the balls in the combined flour and sesame seeds, shaking off the excess.
3. Heat 3-4 cm oil in a pan; add the carrot balls and cook in batches for 2-3 minutes or until golden.
