Fritters

Lemon Aioli

Method

Fritters

1

Prepare the Artichokes

If using canned artichokes, drain and rinse them. If using frozen, thaw and drain them. Chop the artichokes into small pieces.

2

Mix the Batter

In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, goat cheese, flour, eggs, parsley, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined and form a thick batter.

3

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat enough olive oil over medium heat to cover the bottom of the skillet.

4

Fry the Fritters

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter and carefully drop it into the hot oil. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

5

Repeat

Continue frying the remaining batter in batches until all fritters are cooked.

Lemon Aioli

6

Combine Ingredients

In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well blended.

7

Chill

Cover the aioli and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
