250 ml water
 1 cinnamon
 75 ml oil
 1 piece lemon rind
 1/2 ts salt
 200 g flour
 oil for frying
 sugar
 Put the water in a saucepan with the 75 ml oil and salt. Bring to
 a boil. Add the flour all at once and beat hard with a wooden spoon,
 working it on a low fire for a minute or two until it forms a ball.
 The batter will be quite stiff. Put it in a pastry bag and pipe
 long strips or rings of the batter into deep, hot oil. It takes a
 bit of muscle to push it through. Fry until golden brown and remove
 and drain. With scissors, cut long strands into short lengths.
 Sprinkle generously with sugar. Makes about 30 strips.
