Method

1

Zest the orange and rub the zest into the sugar with your fingers to release the oils and maximize flavor.

2

Drain any excess liquid from the ricotta, then whisk it together with the egg, sugar, and liqueur.

3

Sift the flour, baking powder, and vanilla into the mixture.

4

Knead the dough (it will be slightly sticky).

5

Dust your hands with flour and roll the dough into small balls.

6

Heat oil to 170°C (340°F) in a deep, narrow saucepan.

7

Fry the balls in batches of 5 to 6 until they reach a gorgeous caramel color.

8

Toss them in sugar or powdered sugar while still hot.
