Parmesan Fritters
This recipe makes about 16 small fritters so if you are having a large group, consider doubling the
recipe as they are very tasty!
¼ cup butter
2/3 cup water
½ cup plus 6 teaspoons flour; sifted
2 eggs; beaten
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
½ cup grated Parmesan Cheese
¼ cup grated sharp Cheddar Cheese
½ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Salt to taste
Preheat your fryer to 375˚.
In a large non-stick pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add water and bring to a boil.
Add the flour and stir quickly with a wooden spoon until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the
pot. Reduce heat to low and vigorously beat in the eggs, a little at a time. Stir in cheeses, parsley and
salt and pepper. Continue stirring until cheese has melted.
Carefully drop walnut-sized spoonfuls of batter into the fryer, being careful not to overcrowd the bas-
ket, and fry 2-3 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
