Top hat cases:
1 mold
¾ cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon rice flour
1 egg, beaten
1 cup water
A pinch of salt
Oil for deep frying
TOP HAT FILLINGS:
1 tablespoon oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 oz peeled shrimp, chopped
1 1b shredded carrot
Pepper to taste
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
Make the cases first. Put both flours in mixing bowl, add eggs, water and salt and mix well. Whisk the batter until smooth and then put through a sieve. Pour into a glass. Heat oil in sauce pan with the mold in the oil. Turn down the heat in medium. Dip mold into batter so that it is thoroughly coated. The mold must not be too hot; the batter should not sizzle when the mold is placed in. Allow the excess batter to dip off and plunge the mold into oil. To make the batter separate from the mold while frying, start jiggling it lightly up and down as soon as it is placed in the oil.
The batter should open and slip away from the mold with slight shaking. Let the case cook until light brown. Store it airtight container. To make the filling, heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the garlic and shrimp until lightly brown. Add the jacamar and carrot and season with the pepper, salt and sugar. Cook for 5 minutes. To serve, put a little of the filling in the top hat cases. Garnish and serve with chili sauce.
