(deep-fried pastry)

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs beaten
4 cups flour ( approx )
1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
peanut oil to fry

This is a northern *****ian street food and may be made into any shape
although the bow is popular.
Cream butter, cream in sugar. Add eggs and beat well. Mix flour with
baking powder and salt. Add enough
flour to make a thick dough. Knead lightly till smooth. Roll on a floured
board 1/4 inch thick. Cut
into rectangular strips ( 2 x 5 inch ) and cut a slit in center and pull
end through to form a loop. Fry
in oil a few at a time until golden. Drain well.
Variation: nutmeg, caraway seed or orange rind may be mixed into the
flour.
