 1 onion
 1 scotch bonnet pepper
 1 clove of garlic
 3 cups of flour
 pinch of salt
 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
 2 cups of water
 Oil for frying
Preperation:

4. Sieve the flower into a bowl

6. Slowly stir in the water, stop adding the water when the mixture has a slightly sloppy consistency
Cooking Instructions:
Fill a frying pan about 1/2cm deep with oil and heat. Spoon fritters (about 1 heaped tablespoon of the mixture) in to the pan, fry for 10 minutes, turn over then fry the other side for a further 5 minutes. Repeat until all of the fritters are cooked. Place the fritters on to a piece of kitchen roll to absorb some of the excess oil.
