The most important factor is the temperature of the oil. Check it is
between 160C (325F) and 180C (350F) before you begin frying. (If you do
not have a thermometer drop a cube of bread in the oil - if it floats in a
few seconds without browning then the temperature is just right.)
Mix all the dry ingredients together ina bowl and gradually add the water
to form a thick paste of coating consistency.
In a wok or other suitable pan for deep frying heat the oil over a medium
heat. Dip each corn into the batter and shake off any excess batter. Fry
them in a single layer, without overcrowding the pan, until they are crisp
and golden brown (7-8 minutes). Drain on absorbent paper.
