By Kate Miller
So, you've been eating healthy for six days in a row and then find yourself craving for some sinful desserts? Well, I'm with you. I think as long as we don't overboard and get carried away with our occasional indulgences, we can always burn off those extra calories the next day, right?
Today, we're doing neither cakes nor bakes, let's make ourselves some lip-
You can have the fritters on their own as snacks or if you can afford the calories, sprinkle icing sugar over papaya fritters and serve with two scoops of rum raisin ice cream for dessert – they taste and look gorgeous!
This recipe also works well for bananas but I prefer papayas as they are low in carbs and calories so I feel less guilty about seconds.
