Ingredients
- 2 1/2 lb. whole milk ricotta, drained in a sieve overnight
- 1 1/2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2/3 cup golden raisins
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup olive oil, for brushing
Preparation
Step 1
1. Mix ricotta and lemon juice in a bowl; set aside 5 minutes. In another bowl, whisk sugar and eggs until fluffy; stir in ricotta mixture and raisins. Slowly stir in 1 cup flour until a sticky dough forms; set aside. Place remaining flour on a plate.
2. Using wet hands, form dough into thirty 2" patties about ½" thick. Heat a 12" nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in 4 batches, brush skillet with 1 tbsp. oil each time. Dredge rounds lightly in flour; fry, flipping once, until golden brown and firm, 4-6 minutes.
Yummy--I love the yellow raisins studded throughout. A bit of a mess to make.
