In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and crushed red pepper togther. Add in the remaining ingredients and mix just until blended. It will be a thick "batter." I used 1/4 cup measuring cup for each fritter - and got 14 fritters out of this recipe. Fry using a mixture of the grapeseed oil and Pam and cook over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes a side. I served mine with pan fried shrimp, more chopped basil and a drizzle of Bolthouse Farms creamy garlic dressing.
Notes
I grated my jalapeno into the bowl, seeds and all. If you want it less spicy, slice the jalapeno in half, use a knife or spoon remove the seeds and ribs and chop fine.
