I made a quorn version using the batter recipe as suggested on dinnerthendessert.com, i.e. tablespoons rather than teaspoons, and 1 tablespoon less of the paprika. It seemed too hot to me - making me feel a bit sick after eating it. I suspect that it really should be teaspoons. I added double the quantity of flour to the remaining mix and it cooled it down to a more palatable spice level. I made this second batch to batter sweet peppers, onions and potato wedges and they were really nice. I’ll be trying it again with teaspoons to see if it’s closer to the KFC taste. I have been vegetarian for several years now though, so I not sure whether I can remember the taste properly though.
