• Round anisette fritters

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons anisette liqueur,
• 6 tablespoons sugar,½ teaspoon baking powder,approximately ½ kg flour
• 4 tablespoons olive oil,4 tablespoons milk

Directions

• Mix the egg, 4 T olive oil, milk, anisette, sugar, and baking powder. Measure out the flour and add most of it, stirring well. Add just enough flour to form a dough that is not sticky. Finish mixing with your hands, and then shape the dough with your hands into round strips about 10 to 15 cm long; form each strip into a circle by sealing the tips with a bit of water. Heat abundant oil in a frying pan and fry on med-high heat until the fritters have risen and are a nice golden color (break the first one open to be sure it has cooked through; if it has not, reduce the heat of the oil slightly). Sprinkle with sugar and serve immediately plain with coffee or tea, or with ice cream.
