Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Start with the farmer cheese. I used the pressed brick kind because it's dry, without extra moisture—which is exactly what you want for fritters.
-
Step 2:
Mash the cheese with a fork, then add 2 egg yolks and the sugar. Mix.
-
Step 3:
Get out the coconut flour—or grind shredded coconut yourself, whatever works. Sift 2 tablespoons of it and add it to the cheese-and-yolk mixture.
-
Step 4:
Mix it all together and taste for sweetness.
-
Step 5:
Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks and fold them into the mixture.
-
Step 6:
Fold everything together gently. You can chill the mixture in the fridge (or out on a cold balcony) so it won't stick to your hands. It really shouldn't stick anyway, since coconut flour soaks up the extra moisture.
-
Step 7:
Shape into thick little pucks :) and dredge them in 1–2 tablespoons of flour.
-
Step 8:
Heat a skillet and fry—with oil or without, whichever you prefer.
-
Step 9:
After a few minutes, check them, flip, and give them a few minutes more.
