Heat the pan
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and brush it with some of the measured 15 ml of oil. The oil should be hot but not smoking.

Fry the fritters
Drop heaped spoonfuls of batter into the pan and flatten them slightly to make 8 fritters. Fry in two batches for approximately 3–4 minutes on each side, using some of the remaining oil for each batch. The finished fritters should be golden brown on the outside and firm and cooked through in the center.
