Ingredients




1 jar of miel de cana
1 Aubergine
For the tempura batter:-
25 grams cornflour
100 self raising flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
small bottle of sparkling water

Preparation

1 Thinly slice the aubergine and place in a colander. Sprinkle with sea salt and leave for up to an hour to draw out the juices. Wash under cold running tap and dry thoroughly with kitchen towels. 2 Make up the batter only when ready to use. 3 Put the dry ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Add sparking water a little at a time and whisk. Keep adding water until a slightly runny and a little lumpy batter is achieved. You won't need all of the water. 4 Place the pieces of aubergine into the bowl and cover with batter. Drop a few at a time into the hot oil, they will float. Deep fry in batches, for approx 2 mins each side. Place onto a baking try and keep warm in a low oven whilst you cook the remainder. 5 Transfer to a serving plate and drizzle over the (miel de cana) syrup.
