Chestnut Fritters
Recipe
300 gr. chestnut flour, cold milk or water
1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
80 gr. sultanas
50 gr. pine nuts, toasted and chopped

Sift the chestnut flour, add the cold water a little at a time and mix to a thick batter.
Add the olive oil, rosemary leaves, pine nuts, sultanas (previously soaked in hot water) and a pinch of salt.
Leave the batter to rest for an hour and then fry, a spoonful at a time, in very hot olive oil.
The fritters should be served with fresh ricotta or stracchino which each guest can spread on them.
