At least 99% of them :)<BR/><BR/>Patricia – yep, fried curd cheese dough :) Wait until I start frying cheese doughtnuts :)<BR/><BR/>Lydia – well, these are dangerously good for mid-afternoon snack as well…<BR/><BR/>Meeta – don’t you even remind me of the waistline issue…<BR/><BR/>Tartelette – thank you for hosting such a fun event. I’m looking forward to reading all the entries soon!<BR/><BR/>Evelin – need olid ühed perfektselt ümmargused ja veidi sarvilised suussulavad pontšikud tõesti. Aga mina pole pontšikulaulust midagi kuulnud???<BR/><BR/>Anon. – thank you! I’ve got excellent Turkish food in the past – too bad your blog is in Turkish only.<BR/><BR/>Annemarie – no gooey here – the curd cheese is incorporated into the dough and actually makes the doughnuts really soft and fluffy!<BR/><BR/>Brilynn – well, just use a small pan and keep the lid nearby (and don’t get the oil too hot!)<BR/><BR/>Mel – enjoy!<BR/><BR/>Linn – I certainly indulged on them a lot :)<BR/><BR/>Shaun – you’re so sweet – making risotto just so you could make arancini (but then you’re arancini recipe is excellent!). A master of restraint indeed :)<BR/><BR/>The Phantom Chef – good!<BR/><BR/>Roxy – how do you call them in Romanian anyway? <BR/><BR/>Cinnamonda – deep frying with oil isn’t so scary after all – it’s just that it uses a lot of oil that you need to discard afterwards..<BR/><BR/>Susan – but you’ve certainly had ricotta balls before? These would be very similar.. <BR/><BR/>White On Rice Couple – it’d make a great party snack – just provide the napkins!<BR/><BR/>Dagmar – tack!<BR/><BR/>Aforkfulofspaghetti – I hope you’ll like them!<BR/><BR/>Anon. – well, that wasn’t supposed to happen, but I swear, every now and then they rolled themselves over on their own!? Must be some logical explanation that (I was hope alone, for sure:) <BR/><BR/>Deb – did you manage to find curd cheese from the Russian shop? (An Edinburgh-based Estonian friend called me the other day to ask how to replace the curd cheese there. I told her to go to a Polish shop – there are many, many in Edinburgh – and she said that she had never thought of that. And her boyfriend is Polish!?!)<BR/><BR/>Farmgirl Susan – oooopps!<BR/><BR/>Lore – I’m intrigued by potato doughnuts. Now, I wonder if there’s a recipe on your blog…<BR/><BR/>Tanya – you’re welcome!<BR/><BR/>The chocolate lady – you’re very kind!<BR/><BR/>Lore - I cannot wait! :)Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-12341286155357164502008-02-03T18:57:00.000+02:002008-02-03T18:57:00.000+02:00Pille, I don't have a blog (yet), but you definite...Pille, I don't have a blog (yet), but you definitely got me thinking about that. <BR/>Ok, I'm all for it! :D My first post will be about those "intriguing" doughnuts and I'll let you know when it will be online.Lorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14756566474190006912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-2994402154360157842008-01-29T21:05:00.000+02:002008-01-29T21:05:00.000+02:00Oh, how breathtaking!

All I had to do was wait until they looked done to pull them out. Delish! Hubby said he could eat them as quickly as I could fry them. I'm glad your recipe is small.<BR/><BR/>I added the rasp grated rind of a lemon, and about 2tsp of Splenda with sugar for baking to the dough.<BR/><BR/>Tasted just like his Hungarian Granny's.<BR/><BR/>As a note, it took less than 1 hour from start to finish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-89515377992073616382008-01-26T14:13:00.000+02:002008-01-26T14:13:00.000+02:00What a great little recipe!
