Carol/CSW/cas Honey Balls General Category : Desserts | | Food Group : Eggs, Grains, Cheese/Other Dairy | | Preparation Method : Fry | | Other Criteria : Christmas | Children just love them. | | Ingredients | | �?nbsp; | 225 g (8 oz) plain white or '00' Italian flour | | | �?nbsp; | 25 g (1 oz) unsalted butter | | | �?nbsp; | 140 g (5 oz) caster sugar | | | �?nbsp; | 2 eggs, lightly beaten | | | �?nbsp; | 1 tbsp dry white wine | | | �?nbsp; | Olive oil, for deep-frying | | | �?nbsp; | 115 g (4 oz) fragrant honey | | | | | | Preparation | | Using a fork, mix together the flour, butter, 25g (1 oz) of the sugar, the eggs and the wine to make a soft dough. Add 1 tsp extra wine, if needed.
On a lightly floured surface, lightly knead the dough, then pinch off pieces about the size of a chestnut and roll into balls. This quantity of dough will make about 20 small balls.
Heat the olive oil until just beginning to lightly smoke. Fry the dough balls, a few at a time, in the hot oil until they are golden, about 4 minutes. Drain on kitchen paper.
In a small saucepan, slowly heat the remaining sugar and the honey to form a caramel, taking care not to let the mixture boil.
On a serving dish, pile the balls into a pyramid, pour over the honey caramel sauce and turn the balls to coat. Serve immediately, with a little extra sauce poured over.
