An Apple Fritter Treat

APPLE FRITTERS 🍏🍎

What rhymes with fritters?  Jitters,  nippers, litters? 😁

Inspired by my Ate J#2 who made a batch recently and made me and my sissies drool via Zoom over her creation.  ♬🎜Do you know the way to San Jose? Let's go there for some freshly-made-apple-fritter! ♬🎜  I do wish our huge family just live next door to each other. 
So one fine weekend, with a couple apples left in our basket, we tried it too. The kitchen smelled most promisingly heavenly while these were fryin! 


Recipe for ~16 fritters: 

fruit

  • 3 large apples
  • 1 lemon
dry ingredients
  • 1.5 cup flour
  • 3 tbsp   sugar
  • 2.5 tsp  baking powder
  • 1 tsp     salt
  • 1/2 tsp  cinnamon
  • 1 pinch  nutmeg
wet ingredients
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice (~from half of a lemon)
  • oil for frying
  • 2/3 cup  milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbsp melted butter, room temperature

Steps:

  1. Peel, core, and slice the apples to about 1/2" thick. 
    Save the peelings for a very near-future salad topping.
  2. 1st bowl, combine the lemon juice and apple.
  3. 2nd bowl (aka final bowl), add all dry ingredients. Whisk to combine.
  4. 3rd bowl, combine all wet ingredients (except butter).
  5. Pour wet ingredients to the 2nd bowl. Use a spatula to fold together until almost combined.
  6. Add the diced apple. (yum!)
  7. Add the butter. (finally!)
  8. Mix nicely with a spatula.
  9. Prepare hot oil in a deep pan.
  10. Scoop apple fritters into the pan.
  11. Cook till nicely more-than-golden-brown and crispy.
  12. Rest in a paper towel and transfer to a baking rack.
  13. Toss with cinnamon sugar or drizzle with cinnamon glaze.

Serve immediately and enjoy!


Verdict: 6 out of 10.  not too bad for a v0.1.
I 
guess we have a very particular kind of sweet tooth. But, we did not follow the recipe to a T.  I only had 2 large apples, which on hindsight was apparently a big deal. So, lesson learned, follow Preppy Kitchen's advise - 3 apples. more apples than batter. yes. yes.
Here's what we made (at lower middle of image below):

Japanese potato salad, onegaishimasu!!!

Refreshing Crunch in every bite Nice touch of creamy from the potatoes and dressing Wonderful colors BEST of ALL: HEALTHY 🥗  Ingredients  3 potatoes, boiled &  roughly  mashed  1/2 cup of picnic ham, or 1/2 can of Spam, diced and fried. 1 cucumber, sliced 1 carrot, julienne 1/2 cup sweet corn,  1/2 cup picnic ham, diced &fried Japanese mayonnaise (*or any mayo) vinegar 1 boiled egg (optional) Salt and pepper to taste. 🥗  Steps Once the potatoes and ham are done, boiled-mashed, fried, respectively. mix altogether in a big bowl. Serve warm immediately, or it can also be served after being chilled for an hour (if in a rush 30 mins in the chiller will do.) The kids preferred without onions, so I always exclude it. Pair with some nicely fried food, like Japanese sausages, or chicken nuggets; world peace over dinner is hugely important. 💡 Inspired by: Ochikeron & Just One Cookbook
