Fate Vegetable Pakoras

Fate vegetable pakoras are easy to make, using different vegetables, as long as they are allowed in your diet.  This combination is our favourite.  Serve them as a snack, or as part of an Indian meal.

Pakoras are also great eaten cold, perfect for a lunch box or picnic. You can either grill them or shallow fry them in a little oil.

They can be as mild or as spicy as you like, just vary the amount of fresh chilli and curry powder.

Makes about 12.

• 50g onion, finely chopped
• 75g carrot, grated
• 75g sweet potato, grated
• 1-2 tbsp fresh chopped coriander
• 3 tsp Rogan Josh or Madras curry powder
• 1 tsp chopped fresh chillies (optional)
• lOOg Fate Low Protein All-Purpose Mix
• salt and pepper to season
• 20 mls water.
• oil for cooking

METHOD

1. Place the onion, carrot and sweet potato into a mixing bowl.
2. Add the coriander, curry powder and chillies. Season with salt and pepper. Stir well.
3. Stir in the Fate All-Purpose Mix, so that the vegetables are thoroughly coated.
4. Add the water and use a large metal spoon to blend well. It will look like a stiff paste.
5. Take a large teaspoonful of the mixture and flatten it slightly. Do not smooth the mixture, it is best if they remain rough around the edges.
6. Either shallow fry in a little oil, or grill, brushed with a little oil, turning over once or twice to cook evenly until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve hot.  Any remaining can be cooled and stored in the fridge for a couple of days.  They also freeze well. The Pakoras can be eaten cold, or reheated in the oven.
