In deep frying pan over medium-high heat, heat canola oil. Once oil is heated through, carefully drop 1/4 cup batter into pan, and fry for approximately 4 minutes on each side, turning down heat as necessary to maintain oil temperature. Remove cooked fritters to a paper-towel-lined tray and repeat until all batter is used.

Sauce
Whisk together yogurt, dill and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with fritters.
