Place ricotta in a sieve over a medium bowl, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow excess moisture to drain from ricotta.

Preheat oven to 160 degree Celsius.

Step 5

Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

Step 6

Using 1 heaped tablespoon of mixture per fritter, cook fritters in batches of 4, turning often with a metal spoon, for 3 minutes or until golden.

Transfer to a wire rack over a baking tray, keep warm in oven while cooking the remaining fritters.

Place fritters on a plate, sprinkle with remaining parmesan, season with salt and pepper.
