Saga Saga: Delicious crispy bites with herbs

Ingredients

Saga Saga paste and aromatics:

  • 300 g of wheat flour
  • 100 g of cowpea or corn flour (for the rustic texture)
  • 1 bunch of finely chopped parsley and chives
  • 2 crushed garlic cloves, 1 grated onion, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 egg, salt, black pepper and water to bind
  • Frying oil

Preparation

  1. Prepare the mixture: in a bowl, mix the flours, baking powder, salt and pepper.
  2. Incorporate the aromatics: add the garlic, grated onion, fresh herbs and beaten egg.
  3. Mix: pour a little lukewarm water while mixing to obtain a thick and homogeneous dough, similar to a dough for savory donuts.
  4. Frying: heat the oil to 170°C. Drop small spoonfuls of dough into the oil and let them brown for 3 to 4 minutes, turning them.
  5. Tasting: drain on absorbent paper and enjoy hot as an aperitif with a spicy tomato sauce.
