Csoroge

Csoroge are Hungarian deep fried fritters.

Yields12 Servings
 2 Eggs
 1 tbsp Whiskey or Bourbon
  tsp Salt
 1 tbsp Sugar
 ¼ cup Water
 1 cup Flour
1

Beat eggs with salt. Add whiskey, sugar and water. Stir in flour to form a soft dough. On a well floured surface, roll out dough as thin as possible. Cut dough in 1 1/2 inch strips across the width. Cut each strip into long diamond- shaped pieces by cutting diagonally every 2-3 inches. Cut a 1/2 slit in the center of each diamond. Carefully lift and stretch each diamond-shaped piece and pull one corner through the cut in the center, stretching the dough slightly. Place the twisted dough on a floured surface.

2

Prepare a sheet pan lined with paper towels. In a 5-6 quart pot, heat 2 quarts of canola oil until it reaches 350 degrees on a deep fry thermometer. Drop 4-5 csoroge in the hot oil and fry until golden, turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on the prepared pan.

3

Allow the oil to return to the proper temperature and continue frying until all the pieces are done. Serve warm or at room temperature dusted generously with confectioners' sugar.
