Pumpkin Fritters are a traditional Christmas treat in Portugal. The name of this sweet can vary by region and they are sometimes called “Sonhos de Abóbora“, “filhós de abóbora,” “bilharacos” (or “bilharecos”), and “belhoses.” This recipe is traditional to the Beira Litoral and Minho regions. However, since each region has its own version and name, it’s difficult to determine the exact origin.
There are many other variations of pumpkin fritters. The most common are simple ones, made with a basic dough and dusted with sugar and cinnamon. There are also fritters (or “filhós”) made with carrot or sweet potato. We use pumpkin and orange in our recipe, which makes them absolutely delicious.
We especially love this pumpkin fritter recipe because it brings back memories of Christmas and home, where my grandmother used to make them. Therefore, they are very special to us. Like many grandparent recipes, the quantities were not always precisely defined and were often estimated by eye. But, somehow, they always turned out well.
Nevertheless, we have tried to reproduce her pumpkin fritter recipe as faithfully as possible. (Thank you, Grandma Adela

The only advice I could give is: try to find a connection with your subject, get excited about it, no matter what it is and try to capture it in the the way your eyes see it. Research possible shooting techniques and tools for your new subject and practice before the real shoot to becom
