Mix together dry batter ingredients in a bowl. Add the water and mix together (don't want it to be too thick). Add the onions, chillis and coriander and combine.

Heat a pot of vegetable oil to around 175 C / 350 F - test with some batter and if it sizzles it is ready to go.

Spoon in small portions of the onion mixture and cook for a couple of minutes, turning them halfway through. Cook in batches, don't overcrowd the pan.

Remove from oil once cooked, set onto some paper towel to dry and sprinkle immediately with sea salt.
