Fritter Batter

2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs (lightly whisked)
2 cups milk
1 tbsp vegetable oil
pinch salt
pinch black pepper

1. Mix flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
2. Lightly whisked milk & eggs in a jug.
3. Make a well in the center of the bowl and gradually stir milk mixture into flour. Add oil and stir until really smooth.

The batter should be thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon and the consistency of double cream.

This crisp, golden batter is ideal for coating fish and vegetables e.g. Mushrooms, onion rings, cauliflower. Substitute black pepper with vanilla for fruit.

Enjoy!
