Recipe of the Week: Fish Fritters
From The Chefs at Sandal’s La Toc in St. Lucia

 

Sally took a cooking class at Sandal's and learned how to make Fish Fritters
 
Ingredients:
½ pounds fish or you can use cooked crab meat
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 large garlic clove crushed and minced
1 cup water
2 scallions chopped
½ habanero pepper, finely chopped
1 TBS canola oil
Oil for frying
 
Directions:
Use any salted cooked fish you like (cod or swordfish is good) or crabmeat.
Sift the flour and baking powder into a mixing bowl. Add garlic, scallions, pepper, water and TBS of canola oil. Mix well.
Heat oil to at least 370 degrees in deep fryer or heavy saucepan.  Spoonful by spoonful  drop the batter into the oil. Fry on each side until golden brown. Remove with slotted spoon and let drain on paper towels. Serve with cocktail sauce or tarter sauce.
 
Sally’s notes: I thought making something like this  would be hard but the chef made it so simple.
