Rosettes Recipe - Cooking Index
Making rosettes is a Christmas tradition for many, or one of you may want to start in your own home! See notes above for useful tips.
Courses: Dessert| Vegetable oil - for frying | ||
| 2 | Eggs - slightly beaten | |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Sugar |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
| 1 cup | 237ml | Water or milk |
| 1 cup | 62g / 2.2oz | All-purpose flour |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Vegetable oil |
| Powdered sugar - for dusting |
Heat oil (2 to 3 inches) in small, deep saucepan to 400F. Beat eggs, sugar, and salt in a small, deep bowl. Beat in remaining ingredients just until smooth. Heat rosette iron by placing in hot oil 1 minute. Tap excess oil from iron onto paper towels. Dip hot iron into batter just to top edge (don't go over top). Fry about 30 seconds or until golden brown. Immediately remove rosette; invert onto paper towels to cool. (If rosette is not crisp, batter is too thick. Stir in a small amount of water or milk.)
Heat iron in hot oil and tap on paper towels before making each rosette. (If iron is not hot enough, batter will not stick.) Just before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
This recipe yields about 3 dozen rosettes.
Notes: A table fork works well for removing fried rosettes from the iron. The sugar can be omitted if you'd like to use the rosettes as an interesting base for savory foods such as chili or creamy main dishes. Rosettes may be sprinkled with cinnamon-sugar while hot.
