Steps:
- Preheat the fryer. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar together. Beat in the egg and milk, adjusting the amount of milk to make a thick batter.

- If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning on the grill.
