Ingredients
- 3 tbsp plain flour
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 4 kangaroo brains (see Note)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp butter or pork fat
Instructions
Mix the flour and water to make a batter. Add the kangaroo brains and seasoning and put to the side to rest.
Heat the butter or pork fat in a medium-size pan over a medium heat. When the fat is starting to crackle, use a dessert spoon to shape the mixture to small-size fritters and place in the pan.
When a nice golden brown colour is achieved (usually after 3 minutes), turn the fritters over to cook the other side for a further 3 minutes.
To test the fritters, lightly press on them and if they are raw, you will feel that they are soft.
Note
• You could substitude the kangaroo brains for lambs' brains.
