Ingredients

fruit
Granny Smith apple
banana
2 tablespoons caster sugar
1/4 ground cinnamon
3/4 cup self rising flour
1 pinch salt
lager chilled, to mix
1 egg white medium
vegetable oil for frying
powdered sugar to serve

Directions

1

Peel, core and stone the fruit, as appropriate, and cut into even-sized pieces. Put the sugar in a bowl, mix in the cinnamon, add the fruit pieces and toss together.
2

Put the flour in a bowl with the salt, and mix just enough lager to make a very thick batter. Beat vigorously with a wire whisk or wooden spoon. Beat the egg white until stiff and fold it into the batter. Put a wok on the burner, fill it about a quarter full with oil and heat for 2-3 minutes until the oil is hot.
3

Drop a few of the fruit pieces into the batter, make sure they're thoroughly coated, then, using a large spoon, drop them into the hot oil a few at a time. As soon as you can see the underside of the fritter is brown (about 30 seconds), flip it over and cook the other side.
4

Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and put them on a plate lined with a kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining fruit and eat immediately, sifting over a little powdered sugar as you serve them.
