The last time this topic came up on the list, I post a recipe from 
Nola for deep-fried cheese fritters.  The recipe clearly says to fill a 
casserole with enough pork grease or oil that the fritters are floating 
in the fat.  This is an unusual recipe, however, and most of the 
other fritter recipes seems to be shallow-fried in a frying-pan
