Method

For the sprout pakoras

Put all the dry pakora ingredients into a bowl.
Gradually pour in the water and mix until a thick batter is formed; ensuring all the ingredients are thoroughly coated in the batter.
Setup your Egg for a direct cook with the wok and expander basket.
Pour in about 3" deep of oil (about 2 litres)
You want the oil to be at 180°C-200°C. To achieve this set your Egg to 140-150°C. As the wok is so close to the charcoal it will be hotter than your Egg reads. Use your Thermapen to test the temperature of the oil.
Add small amounts (about a tablespoon) of the batter as will fit in a single layer, don't overcrowd the wok. Better to cook in small batches.
Cook the pakoras for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden brown and crisp, turning halfway through.
Remove and drain on kitchen paper.

For the cranberry chutney

Mix all the ingredients together.
Warm through in a small pan and serve over the pakoras.
