- 1 fresh jalapeño or green chilli
- 1 bunch of fresh coriander, (30g)
- 2 limes, juiced
- 2 tbsp chipotle sauce
Method:
- To make the batter, mix the rice and 00 flour together with the iced cold sparkling water, season with a touch of salt and pepper.
- Peel the kiwi fruit, cut in half and put into a large dry non-stick frying pan on a medium heat with the green halves of the spring onions and the deseeded chilli.
