Chestnut and Fruit Fritters
Ingredients :
2 med Apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1 cup Vin Santo or other dessert wine
1/3 cup Granulated sugar
1/2 cup All-purpose flour
1/2 cup Chestnut flour
1 x Egg, separated
3/4 cup Dry white wine
1 tbl Unsalted butter, softened
Vegetable oil for frying
Confectioners' sugar for dusting the fritters
Method :
Place the apple slices in a bowl and sprinkle with the Vin Santo and the granulated sugar. Cover and set aside for 1 hour.
Mix together both types of flour, the egg yolk, and the white wine.
Beat the egg white in a separate bowl until fluffy. Fold the egg white gently into the flour mixture. Drain the apples and mix gently into the batter.
Heat 1/2-inch of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat.
Drop a 5-inch round of batter in the skillet, cook until golden brown on one side, flip and cook likewise on the other side. This should take about 3 minutes (1 1/2 minutes per side). Remove, drain, dust with the confectioners' sugar, and serve.
Yield: 4 as a dessert or snack
