Chadian bean fritters
3/4 C white beans
Water (for soaking)
Pinch baking soda
1 hot chili, mashed
1 maggi or bouillon cube
Salt & black pepper to taste
Vegetable oil (for deep frying)
Pick over and rinse beans. Place beans in a large bowl; cover with water and add a pinch of baking soda. Set aside to soak overnight. Next day, wash beans and rub together to remove skins. Place beans in a blender; season with salt, black pepper, the hot chili and the bouillon cube. Pulse to chop; add a little water. Process mixture to a thick paste. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 300-degrees F. When vegetable oil reaches desired temperature, drop in bean batter by tablespoon. Fry for a few minutes until golden brown all over, turning half way through. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
