ukrainian rosettes

December 22nd, 2008

You may not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes ukrainian rosettes but it is obtainable. The key is to not eat ukrainian rosettes or other high calorie desserts every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself rich food one day per week. I eat a low calorie diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 1800 calories each day, and then on the last day, I eat anything – within moderation of course.

I have been using this method for the last 6 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet aids. I have just been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.

I also feel it helps to have a little support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.

A culinary fantasy inspired by summer roses. These rosettes are also known in Ukraine as carnival roses. They are very elegant and dainty.

3 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar
1 tablespoon soft butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups sifted flour, more or less
Confectioners’ sugar
Candied cherries or red jelly

Beat the eggs and the egg yolks together. Beat in the sugar, butter and salt. add enough flour to make medium soft dough that is easy to handle.

Knead lightly in the bowl to incorporate the flour. Cover and let the dough stand for 10 minutes. If the dough is too soft chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Using a small amount of the dough Roll very thin, about 1/8 inch or thinner. Cut into circles with small cookie cutters of two different sizes, about 1 1/2 and 1 inch in diameter. Place 2 circles of the same size one over the other, and top them with a smaller circle. Press the centers together tightly with the blunt button point of a knitting needle, or with a finger tip. The knitting needle is preferred as the finger tip leaves a large depression, making the fried rosettes hard in the center. Make 5 even slits on the outer edge of the circles to form petals. These petals will curl up in frying, giving a rosette shape. Fry, a few at a time, in deep fat (375 degrees F) until delicately browned. Drain on absorbent paper. sprinkle with the confectioners’ sugar. Just before serving, place the candied cherry, cut in half, or a dab of red jelly, in the hollow of each rosette.
