Method
-
step 1
Fry the shallots in 2 tbsp oil until soft. Add the spices and fry until fragrant then add the chilli and leave to one side to cool slightly.
-
step 2
Sieve the flour with a good pinch of salt and the baking powder. Gradually whisk in about 250ml water to make a thick batter. Add the shallot mix and mix everything together.
-
step 3
Fill a pan no more than 1/3 full with oil and heat until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. Dust the broccoli with flour and coat in the batter. Drop each one into the oil, cooking a few at a time. Cook for a few minutes until light golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels.
-
step 4
Serve topped with a poached egg and some coriander and a good spoonful of greek yoghurt on the side.
