Dipping sauce
  • 2tablespoons sweet chilli sauce
  • 2tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1teaspoons lemon rind, finely grated
  • 1tablespoons lemon juice
  • vegetable oil (for deep-frying)
  • 75grams plain flour

Method

Step 1 of 4

Mix the dipping sauce ingredients together in a serving bowl and set aside.

Step 2 of 4

Half-fill a deep saucepan with vegetable oil and heat to 180-190°C , or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil browns in 30 seconds. Just before the oil is hot enough, using a hand whisk, quickly beat the flour, cornflour, salt and sparkling water together in a bowl to make a slightly lumpy batter.

Step 3 of 4

Dip one-third of the vegetables into the batter until coated and then drop straight into the hot oil. Fry for 2 minutes until crisp. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper and keep warm in a low oven.

Step 4 of 4

Fry the remaining vegetables in 2 more batches. Serve hot with the dipping sauce.
