Instructions

1. Make a yeast dough from the specified ingredients and let rise for about 1 hour until it has doubled. Use 2 bowls for this, otherwise the dough will overflow.
2. Heat the clarified butter in a large saucepan. Make a wooden spoon test. Blisters must form on the handle of a wooden spoon held in the fat for the fat to be hot enough. Now cut off small amounts from the dough with a tablespoon and place in the hot fat.
3. Funny shapes emerge. Turn the fire sparrows once in the fat. When these are golden yellow on both sides, place them on a kitchen towel so that the fat can drain off. Turn it in a bowl with sugar while it is still warm.
4. The pastries always succeed. Very popular with all children, but adults also enjoy it. It can be frozen with the sugar on the same day, then defrosted in the microwave and enjoyed. So you always have something at home for surprise guests.
