Brilio.net - Vegetable fritters are a versatile food that can be enjoyed as a snack or side dish with rice. Various types of vegetables such as carrots, cabbage, and bean sprouts are the main ingredients in making fritters. The success of making delicious fritters is also determined by the composition of the appropriate flour dough.
The addition of rice flour in vegetable fritter dough has become a choice for many people to get a crispy texture. However, many people fail because the fritters absorb too much oil even though the results are crispy . A common solution that is often used is to add baking soda or liquid margarine to the dough.
A simple alternative has been shared by TikTok user @deeeirma to solve the problem. This trick only requires one type of common kitchen spice used for cooking. This method is a practical option when you don't have baking soda or liquid margarine at home.
First of all, prepare all the vegetable fillings that you want to process into fritters. After that, mix the vegetable pieces with the ground spices, rice flour and wheat flour, and additional powdered spices according to taste. Now, this is the key, so that it doesn't absorb a lot of oil, the dough must be added with a little turmeric powder.
You also have to adjust the total water used to dissolve the dough. Make sure that the water used is only a little, so that the resulting dough is still a bit thick. Because, if the dough is too runny, the fritters can easily absorb a lot of oil when fried later.
"Don't add too much water, so the mixture doesn't become too runny," said a netizen on the TikTok account @deeeirma, quoted by BrilioFood on Tuesday (12/11).

Once the fritter dough is ready, fry it in hot oil using medium heat. The netizen familiarly called Irma also explained that the oil used to fry the fritters should be quite a lot so that it can soak all parts of the fritters and is really hot when the fritters are dipped. Its function, in addition to making it easier for the fritters to cook evenly, is that the fritters will not easily absorb a lot of oil.
