CHEESE AND VEGETABLE FRITTERS / CHEESE PAKORAS (Continental Style)



Cheese and vegetable fritters are perfect for munching at tea time or with drinks. I am sure all the kids would love them too as they have no spices or chillies. Those who enjoy hot stuff can relish them with a spicy dip / sauce. The addition of vegetables can be variated according to the availability. Non vegetarians can add one egg to the batter too..


Ingredients:
APF / maida ......... 1 & 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese ... 3/4 th cup (grated) Green capsicum .. 2 tbsps (diced) Red Capsicum ..... 2 tbsps (diced) Yellow capsicum --- 2 tbsps (diced) Onion ................... 2-3 tbsps (diced) Spring onions ...... 2 tbsps (diced) Egg .............. 1 (optional ) Baking powder .... 2 -3 pinches Dried basil........... 1/2 tsp (or few fresh leaves chopped) White or black pepper .... 1/2 tsp Salt ............ to taste (add carefully as the cheese is already salty) Oil ............ to fry.
