Work the dough on a floured surface, form a ball and let it rest for 15 minutes covered with a bowl.

Useful tips
Use hot oil but not smoking, so the fritters puff up immediately.
Do not press the dough in the pan: they should remain irregular and “rustic”.
If you want a stronger taste, add olives or a pinch of chili pepper.
For a lighter version, you can also cook them in an air fryer, brushing them lightly.
