Rammaché

Rammaché are traditional Sicilian fritters, and the dish is typical of Acireale. It's made with butter, flour, eggs, diced prosciutto crudo, parsley, lard, salt, and grated caciocavallo cheese. The dough is made with butter, flour, and eggs, and when it starts to develop bubbles, it's time to incorporate the cheese, parsley, and prosciutto into it. The balls of dough are fried in lard very slowly until golden brown. These Sicilian fritters are typically served hot.
