We enjoyed the flavor of these fritters. I should have used a deep-fryer, but I used a cast iron skillet. I think I needed deeper oil for mine were more like 'cakes'. (i.e. pan-, cornbread-) I reduced the recipe to 2 servings and used a whole habanero, including a few seeds. These made a nice side dish for recipe#458070. I will try to think of a 'sauce' or 'dip', to go with these, so they could be a 'stand alone' appy! Thanks for sharing a delish recipe, Rita~!

Both my DH and I did not care for these hot or even warm but once they hit room temp WOW super yummy. I did find the batter thin and after the first fritter ( for testing) I added almost another 1/4 cup of flour. Next time I am adding more habnero LOL This was served as a side for a Caribbean meal along with recipe3373817#373817 and recipe#170738#170738 Made for ZWT 5 for tram zaar chow hounds
