How to make pumpkin fritters? Helpful Tips and Tricks
When frying the fritters, be careful not to burn one side more than the other. You have to turn it quickly so that they brown on both sides evenly. It is not advisable to exceed 100 degrees.
If this happens, you have to put the pan aside and let the temperature drop. It is advisable to remove the fritters when they are golden brown and let them drain on a plate lined with paper napkins. It is advisable to change them as they become soaked.
