- To make the pasta frolla, sift the flour with the baking pwdr and mix with the sugar. Place the butter and lard, roughly cut up, in a pan with the wine and heat gently till the fats have almost all melted. Mix with the sifted flour to create a soft dough - you may not need quite all of the liquid, so go carefully. Knead briefly to smooth out, then wrap loosely in a floured cloth and leave to rest for an hour or possibly so.
- For the filling, sieve the ricotta, then beat with the lowfat milk till creamy.
- Fold in the sugar and salt.
- Take walnut-sized pcs of dough and roll out thinly into a roughly circular shape. Place a generous tsp of the sweetened ricotta in the centre of each one and top with a couple of pcs of chocolate.
- Fold the dough over to cover the ricotta, and press down firmly all around the filling to seal. With a pastry wheel, trim off the excess pastry to create a crescent shape.
- Heat a 2 1/2cm deep layer of oil in a wide frying pan over a moderate heat.
- Fry the fritters, a few at a time till puffed and browned.
- Drain briefly on kitchen paper, then roll in caster sugar. Eat hot or possibly cool.
