  2. Place sugar, lime juice, lime leaves, chilli and remaining 3 tablespoons fish sauce in a bowl. Stir to dissolve sugar. Toss dressing with tomato, onion, mango and cucumber.
  3. Half fill a saucepan or deep-fryer with oil and heat to 180°C (test with a cube of bread - it will turn golden in 30 seconds when ready). Place extra flour in a bowl and season.
