Sesame and coconut fritters

It's already Carnival time in Italy. It seems like only yesterday when we welcomed New Year.

Time goes by so fast in the kitchen and fritters are usually made during this period.


I took some fritters my cousin's home.


She asked us to not eat all, as she wanted to have breakfast with them the day after.







Here you find a good recipe.

Ingredients for 30 fritters:


100 g corn flour (fioretto type in Italy)

100 g corn starch
50 g rice flour
70 g coconut flour
50 g margarine
100 g sugar fruit
100 g coconut water (it is good also coconut milk or other milks)
2 eggs
a pinch of salt 
sesame seeds (about ten tablespoons)
sunflower oil for frying




Preparation:


I mix in a bowl the sugar fruit, the coconut water, the eggs and the margarine.


In another bowl I mix the flours, the starch and the salt.

Then I add the dry ingredients to the eggs blend and I knead up to have a smooth dough.
I shape some balls by hands and I roll them in sesame seeds so to be fully covered.
I fry the balls in a pan with high edges, little by little up to making golden.
I drip the fritters with a perforated spoon on a blotting paper.
I serve them still lukewarm.







I cannot blame my cousin.
These fritters are so greedy.
I will prepare them again!
