Thai Tortellini Fritters
Ingredients
9 oz refrigerated three cheese tortellini
1/4 c self-rising flour
8 Tbsp Thai sweet chili sauce, divided
1 1/2 c mayonnaise, divided
2 large eggs
1 1/2 c panko breadcrumbs
1 c unsweetened, dried grated coconut
1 tsp salt or to taste
3 c corn oil for frying
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice + grated lime zest from 1 lime
1/2 tsp Asian chili garlic paste or to taste
Fresh cilantro sprigs for garnish
Directions
1 Cook tortellini according to package directions; drain and cool.
2 While tortellini is cooking, set up breading station. Whisk 2 tablespoon Thai sweet chili sauce with 1 cup mayonnaise and eggs in a wide pasta bowl.
