When everything is well combined, add the flour and gently mix again.", "Preheat a large frying pan with a few tablespoons of oil. The goal is to prevent sticking, not to deep fry. Your heat should be medium all around.

3
Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately. Garnish with a dollop of fresh ricotta, sprinkle of sea salt and some freshly chopped dill (if you'd like)."]
