The ingredients for Ricotta Fritter are:

1 clove garlic
3 slices white sandwich bread
kosher salt
1 egg beaten with 1 tsp water
4 oz mild goat cheese
1/2 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
finely grated zest of 1 lemon
1 Tbsp snipped fresh chives
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp olive oil

Here is how you make Ricotta Fritter:

1. Grind: with food processor runner, drop garlic down the chute, buzzing it to bits. Break up bread and add to food processor along with a pinch of salt. Grind to fine fluffy crumbs. 2. Prep: line up three plates: one holding flour, one holding egg mix and one holding the breadcrumbs. 3. Mash: drop both types of cheese into a clean food processor. Swirl smooth. Briefly pulse in zest, chives, thyme, pepper and 1/8 tsp salt. 4. Shape: Use a 1 1/4 in ice-cream scoop (or a tablespoon) to scoop cheese mix into balls. Drop the balls first in the flour, rolling to coat; then in the egg, rolling to coat; then in the crumbs, rolling to coat. Pat each ball into a disk, about 1 1/2 in across and 1/2 in thick. Let rest, uncovered for 15 minutes. 5. Crisp: in a heavy skillet, melt butter into oil over medium. Scatter in a pinch of salt. Add cheese pucks without crowding. Crisp to a golden brown about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining pucks. 6. Serve. (Along with a salad).
