  • Heat up a frying pan and add some cooking oil for deep frying. Once the oil is heated, drop a spoonful of batter into the frying pan. Try to "shape" the batter, so it's somewhat round. Deep fry the fritters until golden brown.
  • Remove the fritters using a strainer. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

Notes

This kuih kodok recipe is not authentic because I added an egg, which is my late mother's recipe. Omit the egg if you want traditional Malay kuih kodok. I personally love the addition of an egg in the batter.
If you are in Malaysia, please use pisang awak if you can find it.
