A traditional pub treat as an appetizer! Sprinkle with malt vinegar and salt for an authentic touch. When deep frying, the most important thing to monitor is the oil temperature. If you don't have a fryer with a thermostat, go to your local kitchen shop and purchase a good quality deep fry thermometer. From an old newspaper clipping. Ingredients:

1 cup italian salad dressing (store bought or your own recipe) |
1 cup flour |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/4 cup water |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
