- Make sure to drain excess moisture from the ricotta cheese to prevent the batter from becoming too wet.
- Finely chop the basil leaves and parsley to ensure even distribution of flavors throughout the fritters.
- Allow the batter to rest for a few minutes before cooking to let the self-raising flour activate, which will make the fritters fluffier.
- Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned skillet to cook the fritters for an even, golden-brown finish.
- Adjust the heat as needed to prevent the fritters from burning before the inside is fully cooked.
- Serve the fritters with a light dipping sauce, such as marinara or a lemon herb yogurt, to complement the fresh herb flavors.
