Apple Fritters Recipe #106302
The Chanukah tradition of frying in oil is considered the culinary equivalent of lighting a menorah. A deep-fat thermometer is an essential tool for deep-frying; check that your oil returns to 375°F between batches; this prevents the food from absorbing it. This recipe is Sarah Molten's and she served it with- what else?--brisket.
