St. Gregory the Great Globi
Servings: 20 globi
Ingredients
- 1 C ricotta cheese drained
- 1 egg
- ¾ C all-purpose flour
- oil for frying
- ¼ C honey
- 2 tbsp poppy seeds
Instructions
- Combine the ricotta (drained), egg, and flour until a dough forms. Cover it and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Near the end of the 30 minutes, begin heating the frying oil in a pan 1" deep over medium high heat to about 365 degrees.
- Form the dough into 1" balls and test the oil by dropping one ball in. It should start to brown in about 1-2 minutes. After removing it and letting it cool, the globi should be cooked through and golden on the outside.
- Cook the rest of the globi being sure not to crowd the pan. Remove the balls and place them on a paper towel to cool.
- Drizzle with honey and sprinkle on the poppy seeds to finish.
