Hashem promises Avram that his descendants will be as many as the stars and the the sand.
For this I made star shaped doughnuts and coated them with a sugar and cinnamon mixture as sand.
This is such an easy fail proof recipe, and it tastes great!!
enjoy!
Star Shaped Doughnuts
1 package dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water or milk
3 1/2 to 4 cups bread flour
1/2 cup sugarr
1 tsp. salt
sugar and cinnamon mixture (for coating)
canola oil (for frying)
Dissolve yeast in 1 1/2 cup warm water. Do not mix, allow to stand for 5 minutes. Mix in 1 cup flour then sugar and salt. Mix in remaining flour until you have a smooth, non-sticky dough. Knead on lightly floured surface. Place in lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until dough is doubled in warm, turned off oven (about 2 hours).
Turn out dough onto floured surface. Divide into 8 balls and roll out with a rolling pin. the thickness depends on what you preffer. i made both really thin and slightly thicker(1cm thickness) and both were great!
Heat oil in a frying pan on medium heat (not too hot or they burn on the outside and stay raw on the inside) and fry for a minute or two on each side.
When ready, roll in sugar cinnamon mixture and enjoy!
