Hannukah fritters (sfenj)

25 -30 fritte

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 kilograms (2 lbs) sieved flour
1 teaspoon Salt
30 grams (1 oz) baker`s yeast

Directions

Here is a recipe for Hannukah from the book "Moroccan Jewish Cookery" by Viviane and Nina Moryoussef:

Dissolve yeast in a glass of lukewarm water. Mix all the ingredients with a glass of lukewarm water & knead thoroughly to give a light, soft, elastic dough. Add a little more water if necessary. Cover with a clean cloth & leave to rise for 3 or 4 hours. Take a little ball of dough in oiled hands.

Make a hole in the center & pull it out to form a little crown. Drop the rings one by one into hot oil. Serve these fritters hot & well risen, dusted with sugar or honey.

They are best when eaten immediately...don`t worry about storing the leftovers because there won`t be any!!! Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest by "leah perez" <perezleah@...> on Nov 01, 1998, converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
