Default Frittelle De Corleone

Frittelle De Corleone


Ingredients:

1/4 Cup Raisins, golden
1/2 Cup Marsala OR 1/2 Cup Sherry
1 Cup Flour, all purpose
1 Pinch Salt
2 Large Egg yolks
1/2 Cup Milk
Oil, vegetable
Sugar, powdered

Soak the raisins in Marsala for 30 minutes.

Drain the raisins, reserving the wine.

Put the flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Stirring very gently with a wooden spoon, gradually blend in the wine until smooth.

Stir in the egg yolks and just enough milk to bring the batter to the consistency of a thick cream sauce.

In a large skillet, heat 1 inch of oil to 375 F.

Using about 3 tablespoons for each fritter, spoon batter into the oil; DO NOT CROWD. Fry the batter until golden, turning once, 4 to 5 minutes.

Drain on paper towels; repeat with remaining batter.

Dust with powdered sugar and serve hot.
