Orange Fritters with Sweet Coconut Cream

We have substituted Banaban Virgin Coconut Oil and suggest trying Low GI Coconut Sugar

for regular caster sugar. Banaban Coconut Sugar coming soon...

INGREDIENTS:

 

For fritters:

Virgin Coconut Oil

225g/8oz  Self-raising Flour

250ml/9floz Sparkling Water

2 Oranges.

 

For cream:

100ml/3½floz Coconut Milk;

2tbsp Caster Sugar (try substituting Low GI Coconut Sugar)

 

To serve: ½tsp cinnamon; icing sugar

 

METHOD: To make the orange fritters, place the vegetable oil into a deep, heavy-based saucepan and heat until a small cube of bread sizzles and turns golden when dropped into it (take care not to leave unattended as hot oil can be dangerous.)

Place the flour into a bowl and whisk in enough water to make a smooth batter. Dip the orange segments into the batter, shaking off any excess to leave a thin, even coating. Carefully place into the hot oil and deep fry until golden-brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

For the sweet coconut cream, heat the coconut milk and sugar in a pan and simmer, stirring occasionally, for five minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved and the liquid is reduced. Pour the sweet coconut cream into a bowl and top with the orange fritters.

Dust with cinnamon and icing sugar and serve.
