  1. I add either rice or SR flour to mine for a lighter mix. The secret is to fry them slowly so that the inside gets cooked properly.

  2. Hi Phil.
    Good idea on the flour. I part cook them and then take them out, flatten them and pop them back into to complete the cooking. I vac sealed them in 6's and into the freezer, then 20 mins in an oven to reheat.
