  • Preparation: 45 min
  • Cooking: 30 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (86.7 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 15 g Eggs, whole, raw
  • 2.5 g Sugar
  • 0.2 g Salt
  • 38 g Milk, whole
  • 18 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 9 g Vegetable oil, for deep-frying (amount absorbed)
  • 4 g Sugar, powdered

Method

  1. Whisk the egg with the sugar and salt, then whisk in the milk and flour a little at a time to a smooth batter about as thick as cream. Leave it to rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a deep pan of oil to 180°C with the rosette iron sitting in it, so the iron gets thoroughly hot.
  3. Lift out the iron, let the excess oil drip off, and dip it into the batter so the batter comes almost to the top edge of the mould but not over it.
  4. Lower the coated iron straight into the oil and fry for 30-40 seconds, until the rosette loosens; nudge it off with a fork and fry it for 30 seconds more, turning once, until pale golden.
  5. Lift out onto kitchen paper to drain. Reheat the iron in the oil for a few seconds and repeat with the rest of the batter.
  6. Once cool, dust the rosettes with icing sugar. Keep them in an airtight tin, as they soften in damp air.
