A typical Italian Carnival dessert: the Mardi Gras fritters recipe
Ingredients:
- 11 oz white flour
- 2 oz white sugar
- 1 oz unsalted butter
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp baking yeast
- 2 tbs Italian grappa or schnapps
- 1 orange peel
- Vegetable cooking oil
Preparation:
- Sift the flour in a big bowl, then add the yeast.
- Add the softened butter, eggs, sugar, orange peel and grappa in the mixture.
- Mix until you obtain a smooth dough.
- Seal the bowl with saran wrap and let the dough rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- Once the dough has cooled down, take it and spread it on the table with some flour; you can choose to spread it with a rolling pin or with a dough sheeter. The dough sheets must be very thin
- With the help of a toothed wheel, cut the dough in big, rectangular squares, all of the same size.
- In a large and short pan, heat up the vegetable cooking oil and then fry the fritters up until they become golden.
- Put the Mardi Gras fritters on a paper towel, and when they’ve cooled down, serve them sprinkled with powdered sugar.
