GRANDMA’S RUSTIC FRITTERS with Parmesan cheese, savory recipe to make in 5 minutes, a tasty idea for parties, great for Carnival, crispy and bubbly.
For Carnival, I wanted something savory, quick, and super comforting, so I made the grandma’s rustic fritters with Parmesan again. The ones that fill the kitchen with aroma while frying and disappear as soon as they hit the table. They are an easy savory recipe, made with few ingredients and truly ready in five minutes.
These Parmesan fritters are crispy outside and soft inside, perfect as a tasty appetizer, aperitif or party finger food. Everyone loves them, both adults and children, and they are ideal when you want to bring something good without spending hours in the kitchen.
I often make them even outside of the Carnival period because the quick rustic fritters are always a good idea: perfectly bubbly, tasty, and irresistible. One leads to another, you’ve been warned.

Practical tips
– The dough must be soft but not liquid: this way the fritters become bubbly
– Use finely grated Parmesan for a more uniform flavor
– The oil must be very hot, otherwise they absorb too much
– Fry a few at a time to keep them crispy
– They’re great even when lukewarm, but freshly made they are illegal
