Carnival apricot fritters with ginger and lime (Tortelli di carnevale alle albicocche zenzero e lime)

 The content and pictures of this post are copyright registered & protected ©myitaliancuisine I'm just back from Italy where Carnival is everywhere, in the streets,  in the bakeries and food stores. Carnival in Italy means colours and fun.... but also a very large choice of desserts, every region has his owns:  Le Chiacchiere also called Bugie or Frappe, Le Zeppole di san Giuseppe, Le Castagnole (see recipe here ), Le Graffe napoletane(see recipe here ). Today I want to share with you a fantastic Carnival fritters recipe I found in the Italian food magazine Sale&Pepe . Very different from the Italian traditional fritters, this one has a soft heart of abricot and ginger, a taste of lime.....It's really a special one but so nice and easy to prepare. A Carnival dessert recipe  to try out if you have a little time, your children and friends will love it! Enjoy and have a very funny Carnival! Makes 15 - 20 fritters Ingredients: 200gr dried apricots 200
