BEINETS - FRENCH FRITTERS 6 tablespoons water 1 tablespoon butter 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour 4 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla confectioners sugar
These are very light and delicate. Heat deep fat to 370 degrees in a deep fryer or heavy pan.
Combine water, butter and flour in a saucepan and boil (stirring constantly) over low heat for about 5 minutes.
Remove pan from heat and beat in one at a time, the eggs.
Beat the batter for about 3 minutes after each egg.
Add the vanilla and drop the batter from a teaspoon into the hot fat.
Cook until golden, drain and dust with the confectioner's sugar.
These must be delicate in flavor, therefore the frying fat must be fresh. Heat oil to 365-70 degrees and cook the batter until almost golden.
If you use butter or part butter for frying, start frying with the fat at 330 degrees and let the heat rise over a 7 minute period to 360.
Allow the heat of the fat to drop down to 330 again between cookings.
