Bala-bala / Crispy Vegetable Fritters Bala-bala / Crispy Vegetable Fritters
This food is usually sold as street food together with fried tofu in batter, banana in batter and others. But buying sometimes can be concerning, so better make it my self.Bala-bala comes from the word "bala" which means "messy" or "dirty" in Sundanese (one of our local dialects, usually spoken in West Java) maybe because the shape of it is a lil bit messy so they call this that way.Anyway, have a try!

Plump Shrimp Kakiage Tempura Fritters Rice Bowl Plump Shrimp Kakiage Tempura Fritters Rice Bowl
I wanted to recreate a kakiage tempura don, which is famous in a certain town. In the top photo, I served in a small rice bowl so the prawn tempura looks very big, but they are actually bite sizes.The flavour will improve if you add some sesame oil to the frying oil. Prawns are quick to cook so you need just a small amount of oil. Turn the sides several times and cook them through. Recipe by pappatyan cookpad.japan -
Corn Fritters with Beer Batter Corn Fritters with Beer Batter
I turned fresh corn and edamame into a stylish appetizer! I fried them with a light beer batter. The story behind this recipe: I made this because I found corn at a good price! I had previously made tempura with beer, so I decided to apply that to make light and fluffy corn fritters. ななはんのおだいどこTranslated from Cookpad Japan
