Recipe from my mother's recipe box. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon active dry yeast |
3/4 cup water |
1 egg |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
cooking oil |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle yeast into water.
2. Let stand for a few minutes; then stir till dissolved.
3. Beat in egg, flour, and salt.
4. When smooth, cover and let stand in a warm place until doubled in bulk.
5. Beat down, and let rise until doubled again.
6. Drop by Tablespoonfuls into 1 inch of hot (375°F) oil.
7. When browned on one side, turn and brown on other side.
8. Drain on absorbent paper.
9. Can be rolled in, or sprinkled with sugar.
10. Tablespoons of dough can be formed around pieces of fruit, or raisins can be mixed into the dough before frying. Ricotta cheese is a personal favorite.
