Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the millet flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  2. Add the egg and lukewarm milk, then mix until you have a smooth, even batter.
  3. Let it rest for 30 minutes so the flour can absorb the liquid.
  4. Heat the oil to 170 °C in a deep saucepan.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, turning them over.
  6. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with cinnamon before serving.

Variations and tips

Coconut milk version. Replace the whole milk with coconut milk for a more exotic flavour.
