Latte dolce fritto (Sweet fried milk)

Good morning blog!!! Today we’re preparing a dessert. This is again typical of my region. I decided to dedicate these first recipes to my region because we have a lot of beautiful and probably unknown recipes. This is an easy recipe, but the final result is very very tasty! Let’s have a look at it.

Difficulty: Easy

Time needed: 20/25 minutes

Price: low

Serves 4

Ingredients:

Milk: 1 litre

Flour: 150gr.

Sugar: 150gr.

Eggs: 4, beaten

Egg yolks: 2

1 lemon rind

Grated bread: 100gr.

Olive oil: Depends on the pan

Directions:

Mix the milk with the flour very well, until there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to the boil. Add sugar, the lemon rind, and the 4 beaten eggs.

Keep cooking on a low flame until you obtain a thick cream.

Remove the lemon rind, oil a plate and put the cream on the plate in a way that it covers the whole plate surface.

When your mixture is cold and solid cut it with a knife (choose the shape you prefer).

Now beat the egg yolks and pass the bits of cream you cut into the beaten yolks.

Then pass them into the grated bread and fry them in abundant olive oil until the surface becomes golden brown.

When ready put a little bit of icing sugar and taste it hot!!! Enjoy!!!

Tips & suggestions:

- Be sure that the oil is very hot before frying

- Use Olive oil, better if extra virgin. I know it costs a lot, but DON’T use other oils to fry. Ingredients make a difference.
