Tuscan rice fritters (frittelle di riso)
Fritters

Frittelle di riso (Rice fritters) are deep fried pancakes made of rice, cooked in milk with lemon zest and sugar. They are a typical Tuscan Carnival sweet, which double as street fair food during the Summer. <br /> <br />They are quick and relatively easy to make, but they do not keep well. Which means that you should plan on preparing them when you have guests, so that you can share them and eat them when they are warm or at least fresh. They will still be edible the day after (a lot of people even prefer them one or two days after), but they will not be as fluffy and as sugary, because the coating of sugar will dissolve. <br /> <br />This is the recipe I grew up with, and that my grandmother taught me a long, long time ago.
