Ingredients

2 each Egg yolks
2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
1/4 tablespoon Lemon juice
1/2 cup All-purpose flour (Quantity estimated (not specified in original recipe))
2 each Egg whites
4 slices Orange slices
2 cups Vegetable oil (For frying. Quantity estimated (not specified in original recipe))
2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (For dusting. Quantity estimated (not specified in original recipe))

Instructions

1In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until well combined. Stir in the lemon juice.
2Gradually add flour to the yolk mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms. The batter should coat the back of a spoon.
3In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
4Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Dip one orange slice at a time into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Carefully place the battered orange slice into the hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
5Remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
