Chef's tips
Keep the batter thick and drop it with a spoon so the fritters hold their shape while frying.
Storage
Store cooled fritters in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days.
Reheating
Reheat in a 375°F oven for 6-8 minutes to re-crisp.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Making the batter too thin, which causes the fritters to spread and turn greasy.
- •Using oil that is not hot enough, resulting in soggy fritters.
