OLIEBOLLEN - THE NO-YEAST VERSION.



Oliebollen - the No-Yeast Version. image

Warning! The amounts in this recipe are only a guide. This is a recipe I prepare by sight and I know what the batter is supposed to look like. I have taken the amounts from the hieroglyphics scrawled in the margins by my late Dutch mother. This can turn into an all morning production. Mum and Dad used to make these by the hundred and it was a good day for the neighbours to call around for a visit! I make a much smaller amount, just enough to say I have made them for the year. It was the only thing my father ever used to cook and he was in charge of the pot and the actual cooking process. Of course Mum's great recipe made him look good! So each year, I commemorate the old year before welcoming the new, rejoice in a good Dutch tradition, and remember my now late parents and the memory of making and eating these. I typed this in before New Year and then when I went to make it on New Years Eve I realised that you don't need the butter. And Lord knows there is enough grease from the deep frying process. You do need some sugar but you may be able to get away with about half depending on the apples and amount of sultanas you use. I would start low unless you have a really sweet tooth, make a couple and keep taste testing and adding if necessary. Those first few are always test olliebollen anyway to make sure the oil is at the right temperature. When I say thick batter, I MEAN thick batter. Otherwise the shape becomes rather interesting and they look like amoebae. Do not use crap beer. Those of you in the US, PLEASE use a European beer or a Canadian or downunder one. If you use everyday US beer it will taste horrible. Guiness has worked well for me in the past. This recipe could easily be made vegan if the egg was replaced with commercial egg replacer and soy milk was used instead of cow's milk. Just note that Guiness is unfortunately not vegan because it has been refined with isinglass. I hear that Samuel Smith Stout is a worthwhile drop that is vegan.

Time 2h30m

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 8

750 g self-raising flour, sifted
1 1/2 liters milk
100 g butter
100 g sugar
1/4-1/2 cup sultana, raisins and peel
1 apple, grated (eg Granny Smith)
1 egg
1 (330 -660 ml) bottle beer, preferably a dark ale or stout (I use Coopers stout here in Australia.)

Steps:

  • Cream the butter and sugar.
  • Add the remaining ingredients in batches, mixing well and adding the fruit last.
  • The amounts are only guides- you are aiming for a thickish batter.
  • Heat up the sunflower oil for deep frying and drop scant tablespoons worth of dough.
  • Deep fry for about 5-7 minutes- they are self turning.
  • If you are too generous with the amount the doughnuts sink to the bottom of the pot and stick.
  • Not a good idea!
  • Too small and they overcook.
  • The aim is to have a golden doughnut that is cooked right through.

OLIEBOLLEN (DUTCH DOUGHNUTS)



Oliebollen (Dutch Doughnuts) image

Ollie-bollen, or Oliebollen, are a Dutch pastry similar to a doughnut. It's typically a deep-fried pastry filled with raisins and dusted with powdered sugar. Some modern variations serve them topped with berry filling, but this is a traditional recipe. Oliebollen are a traditional treat on New Year's.

Time 2h8m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (0.6 ounce) cake compressed fresh yeast
1 cup lukewarm milk
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 egg
¾ cup dried currants
¾ cup raisins
1 Granny Smith apple - peeled, cored and finely chopped
1 quart vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • Break up the compressed yeast, and stir into the warm milk. Let stand for a few minutes to dissolve. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Stir the yeast mixture and egg into the flour and mix into a smooth batter. Stir in the currants, raisins and apple. Cover the bowl, and leave the batter in a warm place to rise until double in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • Heat the oil in a deep-fryer, or heavy deep pan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Use 2 metal spoons to shape scoops of dough into balls, and drop them carefully into the hot oil.
  • Fry the balls until golden brown, about 8 minutes. The doughnuts should be soft and not greasy. If the oil is not hot enough, the outside will be tough and the insides greasy. Drain finished doughnuts on paper towels and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve them piled on a dish with more confectioners' sugar dusted over them. Eat them hot if possible.

OLIE BOLLEN



Olie Bollen image

This recipe was handed down to me by my mother. It is a Dutch favorite on New Year's Day. I spent New Year's Day with my in-laws for the first time and brought this tradition with me. They were very impressed with this delicious doughnut-like treat.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
½ cup lukewarm water (110 degrees F to 115 degrees F)
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups milk
1 ½ cups chopped apple
1 cup raisins
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
white sugar for decoration

Steps:

  • Warm oven on lowest possible temperature setting.
  • Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a small mixing bowl. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add the eggs, yeast mixture, and milk; beat with an electric mixer until blended.
  • Turn off the oven. Cover the prepared dough with a greased piece of plastic wrap, and place the bowl of dough on the lowest rack of the warmed oven. Allow to rest and rise for 1 hour.
  • Heat the oil for frying to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in a heavy bottomed, deep skillet.
  • Mix the apples and raisins into the dough. Then, carefully slide the dough by heaping teaspoons into the preheated oil. Do not crowd the pan. Fry the fritters until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. They should turn over on their own when they are ready to brown on the other side, but keep an eye on them and flip them as necessary. Remove them to a paper towel lined plate and repeat with the remaining dough. Dust with sugar while warm.
