DEEP-FRIED CARROT BALLS
This comes from a cookbooklet called "Yum Cha and Asian Treats". They are easy to make, and they taste wonderful. Would be excellent served with a side of sweet and sour sauce.

- Shape the carrot mixture into small, walnut-sized balls. Roll the balls in the combined flour and sesame seeds, shaking off the excess.
- Heat 3-4 cm oil in a pan; add the carrot balls and cook in batches for 2-3 minutes or until golden.
