Difficulty:[usr 2]

At least 1 hour before prepare the batter:pour the sifted flour into a bowl, add a pinch of salt. Make a hole in the middle of the flour and add the two egg whites. Then while mixing with a whisk, pour in the olive oil and beer. You should get a smooth paste. Let it rest in the fridge.

While the dough is resting, prepare the vegetables:rinse and dry the asparagus tips carefully. Remove the roots of the onions, leave them a small piece of green stems, wash them and dry them. Slice the gourmet peas. Cut the leaves of the artichokes halfway down, wash and dry them carefully, then cut them into thin slices lengthwise.

Heat the frying pan. As soon as it reaches 180°C, dip the vegetables in the batter, then throw them into the frying bath.

When they are nicely browned on both sides, remove the donuts using a slotted spoon and immediately place them on absorbent paper.

Proceed in several rounds so as not to lower the oil temperature.

Enjoy these vegetable fritters hot.
