Fried Ricotta Fritters Draft

How I make it

1. Whisk the sugar and eggs together well in a bowl.

2. Add the ricotta, lemon zest and lemon juice and mix until smooth.

3. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt.

4. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and mix well until the batter is smooth.

5. Heat oil for deep-frying in a pot, at least 3 inches (7 cm) deep.

6. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil and fry until golden.

7. Lift out and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

8. Arrange on a serving plate, dust with powdered sugar and serve right away.
