Ingredients

  • 1 kg roasted or boiled pumpkin
  • 375 g flour
  • ½ tablet of fresh yeast (12/13 g)

Step by step :

1
Roast or boil the pumpkin. In our case, we preferred to roast it. Once the pumpkin is roasted or boiled, mix it with the flour and yeast until it forms a consistent dough. Stripe
2
Heat up a fryer or a frying pan with plenty of oil to be able to fry the fritters and ensure they are covered. Stripe
3
Form the shape of the fritters (read tips below). Stripe
4
Fry the fritters for no more than 2 minutes. Let them rest on a plate covered with a napkin to absorb the remaining oil. You can add a topping of sugar to give them a sweeter touch. Stripe

Tips for forming the shape:
  • The easiest thing is to make them one by one and put them in the fryer or pan individually so that the shape with the hole is perfectly maintained.
  • You must have wet hands before forming the shape of each fritter so that they do not stick.
  • Make a ball with one hand and then when you place it in the other hand to add it to the fryer, make the hole with your fingers just before frying.
