Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lambs’ testicles, prepared as above and cut into ¼-inch-thick slices
  • Marinade: the juice of ½ lemon, 1

Method

Marinate the slices for from ½ hour to 1 hour, turning them around a couple of times. Slip them all at once into the frying batter and, when the oil is hot enough to sizzle when a drop of batter touches the surface, pick them out of the batter, one by one, in a teaspoon, making certain that each is well coated in batter before dropping it into the hot oil. Do not try to fry too many at a time.
