Whitebait Fritters Step By Step

Native Maori food New Zealand Whitebait
White bait is the generic term used throughout the world to describe small fishes that are collected en masse and eaten whole. New Zealand whitebait, consisting of the young of several species, is a traditional Maori food which is highly prized by Kiwi’s.
Whitebait can be battered or dusted in seasoned flour and deep fried, but is most commonly served in fritters. In the following recipe and step by step pictures I have used a flour based batter, but it can be made using just egg, or egg white, making it more akin to an omelette.
