Bunuelos de Lechuga (Lettuce Fritter)

This is one of my favorite dishes. It's real simple to make and it tastes delicious. In my house my mom is the one who always cook this dish.

Ingredients
12 lettuce leaves
2 cups of flour
3 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of parsley
2 teaspoons of olive oil
2/3 cup of milk
2 cups of corn oil (to fry)

Directions
In a medium size bowl combine the flour, baking powder and parsley. In a separate bowl mix the eggs, milk and olive oil. Add this mixture gradually to the dry mixture and blend it well with your hands. Washed the lettuce and make sure to dry it well with paper towels. Chopped the lettuce into thin strips and add it to the mix. Heat a medium size sauce pan with the corn oil to low/medium and when it's hot grab a tablespoon to get the mixture and pour it into the oil. Make sure to not make the fritters too big, because it will turn out crispy in the outside but uncooked in the inside. Is also important to fry the fritters in a low/medium temperature so it will cook evenly.
