     The problem with sweet fritters is that they come at the end of the meal and unless you are eating in the kitchen, it is impossible to serve them crisp from the pan. One solution is now provided by electric deep-friers. You can prepare everything before dinner, switch on the frier which is thermostatically controlled, perhaps when you serve the salad, and quickly cook the fritters while the cheese is cleared.
