In some regions are called rags, in other strike, Abruzzo are called small talk. Are typical sweet fried carnival.
Last month, for Carnival, I have prepared several times, Also for the party in kindergarten my son.
This is the recipe that I follow, are just soaked with oil even if they remain the same because of the fragrant butter. With this recipe comes out quite a large tray of chatter.
Ingredients
- a pound of flour
- 80 grams of butter
- two eggs
- little milk
- a pinch of salt
- 100 grams of sugar
- grated lemon
- half a bag of baking powder
- vanilla icing sugar
- Peanut oil for frying
Preparation
Mix together all ingredients starting with sugar and melted butter. Add the beaten eggs, salt, lemon peel, and finally, flour and baking powder mixed together. Alternating with a little milk if the dough is too hard. Must come out a smooth, not too hard nor too soft, then it will work with the flour.
Allow to stand for half an hour covered with a cloth.
Prepare the pastry board. I use the cooking utensil Imperia, that for the dough and roll out the dough end (penultimate notch tool, the last is too thin). The sheet will then hand-cut with a roller zig zag, those for pasta. Many rectangles and two cuts parallel to the center.
Fry in hot oil. The secret to the success of the cake is just frying: the oil should be at the right temperature and you have to keep it. Friggerle 3 the 4 at a time, not more, and for a few seconds, turning quickly.
Should be removed and placed on paper towels and immediately placed on a large tray and covered with icing sugar.
Are more good when they cool that hot freshly made, then you can also prepare in advance.
