FRISCIÖ (Fritters)

Hi guys. Today another typical recipe from Genoa and Liguria. This is a very fast recipe that you can use as an appetizer. We call it FRISCIÖ, which means more or less fritters.
You can eat them alone, with abundant salt, or you can use them instead of bread to eat cheese and ham, salami and so on.
Very quick, very easy, but very very good!!!

Difficulty: Very easy

Time needed: 10/15 minutes

Price: Very low

Serves 4

Ingredients:

Flour: 500gr. 2 egg yolks Salt, water, yeast and olive oil as needed

Directions:

Put the flour in a bowl and little by little add water while mixing, until you obtain a fluid batter.
Let it rest for 1 to 3 hours.
Add the egg yolks, salt to taste, a little bit of baking powder (2 teaspoons should be enough) and mix it very well.
Put abundant olive oil in a frying pan, and when the oil is ready use a tablespoon to put the batter into the pain. Every tablespoon of batter will be a single fritter (they are not very big in fact)
When the fritters are golden brown drain them and dry them very well with paper, they don't have to be oily!!!

Put another pinch of salt on the fritter and serve them hot!!!!

Enjoy!!!

Tips & suggestions:

- These fritters are very good but they have to be hot and just made so don't prepare them too early.

- Don't make them too big. The smaller the better.
