Combine flour, salt, egg, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and beer to make a smooth batter. Cover with plastic wrap for several hours at room temperature, the longer the better. (It can also be refrigerated overnight

Stir in curry powder. Beat egg white until stiff and fold it into batter. Gently fold in carrots. Drop large spoonfuls of mixture into 375-degree vegetable oil, and cook about one minute on each side.

The oil doesn't need to be more than one inch deep for this. Remove fritters with slotted spoon, and let them drain on paper towels.

Serve hot. Makes four servings.
