Flour Fritter a.k.a. Cekodok

How can you not love cekodok (che-core-dock)? Even my kwailo other half loves it. Its easy & quick to make since the basic ingredient are flour, egg, salt & cold water and delicious. The funny thing is he calls it cekodos since according to him, there's more than one (plural) thus the 's'. Hahahha.

When I make cekodok, I usually add some chopped onion and once in a while I add some small anchovies or chopped prawn/shrimp. The reason why I said 'small' is because he insisted that he doenst like anchovies nor shrimp/seafood. But as proven by the number of times that I made cekodok with anchovies or shrimp in it and he still devour them, i know its not true. :P (Note: But please dont do this at home with someone who's allergic to seafood ok?)

Flour Fritter / Cekodok

Ingredients:

1.5 cups multi-purpose flour (dont use self-raising flour)

1 egg

1/4 onion - finely chopped (optional)

5-6 shrimp - finely chopped (optiona)

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup cold water

Vege oil for deep frying

1. In a deep frying pan, heat the oil on medium high

2. Mix all the ingredients then only you add the water to form a batter.

3. Using a tablespoon, scoop & drop into the oil. Flip them once or twice until golden brown. (be careful when frying because sometimes they tend to splatter)

You can eat it on its own or with ketchup or sweet chili sauce. I like having mine with Lingham chili sauce. ;)
