MATERIALS
- 4 tbsp finely chopped fennel
- 80 g taramas
- 3 fresh spring onions, finely chopped
- 1 large ripe tomato, peeled, finely chopped
- 1½ cups flour
- ½–2/3 cup water
- oil for frying
Implementation
Dissolve the tarama in half a cup of the water and put it in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients except for the water and mix well. Gradually pour in as much of the remaining water as needed to make a thick batter. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and, when it is hot, drop in spoonfuls of the batter, making sure they do not stick to each other. Fry on both sides until golden. Remove the malathropites with a slotted spoon onto kitchen paper to absorb the oil. They are eaten hot.
