BATTER FRIED SAUSAGES



I had eaten this snack at the Farmers Market in US. Here I have made some changes to make the snack a bit spicy and given it an Indian touch by sprinkling garam masala and red chilli powder.. Instead of using the normal big sausages that they used, I tried out with the mini chicken sausages. It turned out quite good. vegetarians can try this with paneer fingers.

Ingredients:
Cocktail Chicken Sausages ... 10-12
Corn / makki ka ata ... 4-5 tbsp
Maida/white flour ...... 2 tbsp
Salt ............... to taste
Baking powder ..... 1/4 tsp
Red chilli powder ..... 1/8 tsp
Garam masala .......... 1/4 tsp
Oil

Method:
1. In a frying pan pour 1 tsp oil and saute the chicken sausages lightly for half a minute. Sprinkle garam masala and red chilli powder.
2. Mix the two flours adding a little salt and baking powder. Mix with water to make a thick batter.
3. Heat oil in a deep pan. Using a tooth pick, dip each sausage in the batter and deep fry them to golden colour.
4. Serve hot with any sauce of your choice.
