Ingredients
Method
1.In a bowl beat the egg with yoghurt, rum and zest. Add icing sugar and salt and mix then add the flour and baking powder and fold into the mixture forming a smooth fluffy dough.
2.Leave dough to rest for 30 minutes. Heat the oil in a saucepan to 180°C.
3.Using a teaspoon scoop the batter and roll roughly into balls. Place 3-4 at a time into the oil. Cook until golden brown then turn them so they cook on the other side. When done, remove the fritters to a paper towel.
4.Sprinkle the fritters with icing sugar while still warm and serve.
Wet hands make the dough much easier to roll into balls, alternatively scrape the mixture into the oil off the teaspoon.
