Penyaram Jawa Fritters

Ingredients:

300ml water

150g brown sugar/palm sugar

25g fine sugar

125g rice flour

100g AP flour

1/4 tsp salt

3-4 cup cooking oil ~ deep fry

Directions/Instructions

1. In a medium-sized bowl, sieve the dry ingredients together.
2. Combine dark brown sugar, refined sugar, and water in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil until the sugar dissolves, then let it warm and cool.
3. Add the sugar water to the dry ingredients little by little until it forms a thick batter. Then, whisk with an electric hand whisk for about 5 minutes.
4. Change to a spatula and add sugar water to form a light batter.  Let it rest for 4 hours or, best, overnight.
5. Pour vegetable oil into a small wok (8"-10" diameter) over low heat. Then, pour 1 scoop of batter into the center of the wok. The batter will spread and float by itself.
6. Let the edge expand fully before flipping.  Flip and prick the center of the cake to release some air and prevent it from exploding.  Fry until golden brown.
7. Once done, place the "penyaram" upright on a kitchen towel before serving.
