Chorizo-style sausages, chickpeas and sherry star in our Spanish-inspired take and we’ve got veggie versions with root veg, blue cheese and chilli.
Want the best hole for your toads? Rest the batter! This allows lots of time for the flour to properly absorb the liquid, the gluten to rest and any trapped air to slowly dissipate, resulting in a light, tender texture.
