Nothing beats the way my nana used to make this!

5. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

6. Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the fritters in batches if needed.

7. Cook each fritter for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
