When I first saw this at the Indian grocery store, i was intrigued by it – Flour made with Plantain? apparently used a lot in African countries like Ethiopia. The recommended use for it is to make pancakes, but it was afternoon when I pulled it out of my pantry to read those instructions- and was not waiting until the morning to try it. I put freshly picked zucchinis from my garden to work to make these delicious bajjis or fritters – as my daughter observed, this flour is really tasty and makes for real tasty bajjis.
Ingredients
1 cup Fufu Flour
1/4 rice flour
1/4 cup besan
2 tsp chili powder (I used sambar powder)
a pinch of asafetida
Salt to taste
about 3/4 cup of water to mix into a fluid batter
oil to fry
2 medium sized zucchinis
These look good! I have not heard of this flour either. I'll have to keep an eye out for it!
