How to Make Ricotta Lemon And Honey Fritters

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 250g ricotta cheese, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup (60g) plain flour (or enough to make a thick batter - see notes), 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar, and the zest of 1 lemon. Whisk until just combined, leaving a few lumps for texture.
  2. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the batter to thicken.
  3. Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil (about 1 cup) in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small amount of batter dropped in sizzles immediately.
  4. Using a tablespoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through, turning gently with a spatula.
  6. Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  8. Once all fritters are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate, drizzle generously with honey, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
