Wikipedia

A fritter is any kind of food coated in batter and deep fried. The word comes from the Latin ''*frīctūra'' ("frying") by way of Old French and Middle English. It can refer to a dessert, a side dish or a main course food. In British fish and chip shops, the fish and chips can be accompanied by ''fritters'', which means a food item (such as a slice of potato, a pineapple ring, an apple ring or some mushy peas) fried in batter. Hence: ''potato fritter'', ''pineapple fritter'', ''apple fritter'', ''pea fritter'', etc. Small cakes made with a primary ingredient, mixed with batter and fried, are found in many American cuisines. "Corn fritters" and "apple fritters" are well known, although the American apple fritter is unlike the British one. Fritters may use regular flour, cornmeal, or a mix. Clam cakes and crab cakes are varieties of fritter. In most Southeast Asian countries like Malaysia, it is common for a variety of fritters, called "cucur" (such as yam, sweet potato and banana) to be fried by the roadside in a large wok and sold as snacks. Fritters are extremely popular roadside snacks all over South Asia and are commonly referred to as ''Pakora'' ''(Pakoda)'' or ''Bhajia'' in local parlance. Although containing soft centres within fritters can be tricky, it is a common misconception that in this case they contain bread. Fritters are exclusively dough- or batter-based foodstuffs.
