2 tbs salt-reduced soy sauce

Step 1

Make the sesame dressing by whisking soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and sesame oil together in a small jug. Set aside.

Cook fritters for 2 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a tray lined with paper towel to drain. Repeat with remaining mixture and oil to make a total of 12 fritters.
