These turned out GREAT - the only problem I had was trying to pick them up out of the frying pan using tongs; I dropped the fritter on accident and burned the you-know-what out of my right hand. So BE CAREFUL!! The photo is mine; I am showing these served with Hey Jude's Tartar Sauce (recipe 65769) and Evelyn'/Athens' Papaya Salsa (recipe 232592).Reply

Hi chia, I just realized I hadn't reviewed these fritters.We made it just as was posted(what a novlety, for me!)and we served it with Toby's Tartar Sauce, and was it delicious! I only wish I could have some right now! These fritters are awesome! Am putting in my request that they prepare them for the restaurant that they are going to make of the 1st floor DR - oh they are so good!! Thanks so much for posting, Diane :=)Reply
