How do I make my pumpkin fritters?

The first thing we will do is peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds (remember they are very healthy, so we can reserve them to part), cut into pieces it and boil. When you are already soft and ready, Remove and store it in a Bowl by removing all the water. The next thing we will do with it is to crush with the Blender to make a well finite mass. Also say you that you must not discard water that you've cooked the squash, then we are going to come in very well to make the dough.
Now we separate the egg yolks from the egg whites, and whites assemble them. Very easy. Once ready, leave them aside and reserve.
And what do we do now? Take a bowl and sift the flour. With it, we do a kind of volcano so in the Center, we can place the sugar, the salt remotely, yeast, orange zest and two egg yolks. Very easy. It is time already start to knead and work the dough to get a good homogeneous mixture. While you do this, you can add a little bit of that water with which we cooked pumpkin, just about 10 tablespoons. The ideal is that you go see it, the dough should be light but consistent.
Up next is put the pumpkin puree. And once again we will return to mix well to achieve a uniform, fine mass without tripping or those lumps that can obscure our pumpkin fritters. If you prefer, the most practical is undoubtedly use the blender.
Now with a few rods or spatula, add the whites whites to mass. Little by little for to take consistency and is also well blended.
It is time to go to the pan. Put a good amount of olive oil and raises the fire. It must be hot for our Donuts can be made. You should take small spoonfuls of the dough that we have prepared. If you're very clever, take them with your hand so that you are with a hole in the Centre (type donuts), i.e., the typical form of the donut.
They should FRY well and stay crisp and golden brown. When the kicks put them on a paper towel so there are no traces of oil. The last thing we will do is give a little sugar on top. And ready... enjoy them!
