Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste for desired spice level)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Oil for frying
  • Optional: powdered chili for coating

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  2. Gradually add water and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients, mixing well to form a smooth and thick batter. Adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
  3. Heat oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pan to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Using a piping bag or a plastic squeeze bottle, carefully squeeze the batter into the hot oil, forming thin, irregular lines resembling firecrackers. Be cautious and work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
  5. Fry the batter until golden brown and crispy, approximately 2-3 minutes. Ensure the crackers are cooked evenly by flipping them with a slotted spoon.
  6. Remove the fire crackers from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
  7. Optional: While the crackers are still warm, roll them in powdered chili for an extra kick.
  8. Allow the fire crackers to cool completely before serving.

Tips and Quick Process

  • Customize the spice level by adjusting the amount of cayenne pepper in the batter.
  • Use a kitchen thermometer to maintain the oil temperature for consistent results.
  • Experiment with different shapes and sizes for a visually appealing display.
  • Store the fire crackers in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.

Caution: Handle hot oil with care, and ensure safety precautions are followed when working with open flames or fireworks-inspired recipes.
