Ingredients
-
2 pounds taro, peeled and grated
5 oz (150 g) white bread ~ 4 toast slices
1 1/2 oz (40 g) ginger minced
100 g sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 oz (30 g) corn starch
oil for deep frying
Directions
In a medium bowl, place the bread slices and cover with water. Let the bread soak for a few minutes then drain and squeeze any extra water from the bread and put aside.
In a large bowl, grate the taro. Then add in the minced ginger, soaked bread, sugar, salt and corn starch.
Mix everything for a few minutes until it's well combined. The mixture should be sticky enough to shape into balls.
Fill a medium-large pot halfway with oil and heat it on medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot enough, start to gently place the taro balls into the pot for deep frying.
Deep fry for approx. 7–8mins or until golden brown.
Take the taro fritters out and let them cool down on some paper towels before serving.
