Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together all ingredients except peanut oil, mixing until well combined.
- Heat the oil to a depth of about 1/4 inch in a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot but not smoking, spoon in the batter using a heaping tablespoon measure per fritter. Do not crowd the pan and do not let the edges of the fritters touch.
- Cook, turning once, until golden brown. About 4 minutes cooking time total. Cook in batches until all batter is used.
- As each batch of fritters is cooked, transfer them to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Keep warm in a low oven.
Notes
- Before adding the batter to the pan, make sure the oil is hot enough that it will immediately begin solidifying the outer edges of the fritters to hold them together.
- After each batch is cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove any bits left in the hot oil so that they don't burn while cooking the remaining fritters.
- To store, wrap securely and store in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. They may be reheated in a low oven (250 degrees) for about 10 minutes. Keep in mind that the reheated fritters won't be as crisp as freshly cooked ones.
