Indonesian Bakwan Sayur is a delicious vegetable fritter that makes a lovely appetizer.  They are crispy and light and best served warm right out of the fryer. They are sort of like a vegetable tempura and really any combination of vegetables can be used, even shrimp can be added.  You will love them, quick, easy and delicious! They are sometimes served with Thai chilies and a tomato dipping sauce. Enjoy!
