fried in batter

It’s best not to collect the flowers directly near a busy road. Check for insects, but do not wash them. Combine the batter ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend with a mixer. Heat 2 cm of oil in a pan. Dip the flowers into the batter and fry in the hot oil. Drain on kitchen paper and sprinkle with sugar. Best enjoyed warm.
