REGIONAL DISHES: ORELLAS BY SPANISH STUDENTS

The "Orellas" is a typical dessert of Galicia.

In Carnival we dress-up, we eat pork meat and "orellas".

INGREDIENTS:

400 g flour, 2 eggs, 100 g
butter, water, salt , anisette, baking powder, olive oil, sugar.

PREPARATION:

The butter must be soft. In a bowl, mix the flour with the
baking powder, and make a hole in the middle. Add the eggs, sugar, water, anisette and butter.

Mix it slowly and, then, knead the dough on a floury table, so it becomes elastic, not sticky, and soft, adding more water or flour if necessary. Leave it for half an hour and make the “orellas”. To make “orellas”:

Take pieces of 50g of dough and extend it on a floury table and make it very fine. Then cut it in smaller pieces and fry them, in a frying pan full of very hot olive oil. Fry them on both sides. Then, put some sugar on them.

Criss Cross- Here I feel well


Hello, my name is Marta, I’m 16 and I’m from Vigo.

My favourite place is New York. I like it because it’s a very big and beautiful city and you can find everything there. You can visit new places everyday, there are a lot of cinemas, music concerts, places to go out, shops... I’d like to live there when I am older.

But my biggest wish is not to spend my life in New York. All that I really want to do is be happy in good company. Hapiness for me doesn’t exist if you don’t share it.

My worries are to have a good job with a good income. As somebody said: “Money doesn’t mean happiness, but it makes you feel such similar sensations that it could be really difficult to distinguish it”.

In ten years I’d like to be doing what I like to do . At the moment I’m not very sure about what I’d like to do but maybe to be a journalist or a film scriptwriter, it really interests me.

Criss Cross Here I feel well


Hello, I'm Isa, I'm 16 and I live in Vigo.

My favourite places are cities on the coast, like Vigo, Bueu...because I love the sea, especially here; in the summer, when we can sunbathe.

My biggest wish... I guess that having friends and people around that I can listen to and who can help me when I need it, and knowing that there are reliable people all over the world.

Worries? Knowing what I will became in the future, what I'm going to do, and knowing that I'm going to be in good company.

Hapiness for me is knowing that the people who I love, feel good.

In ten years...When I'm 26 I'd like to have a good job, without worrying about money, and to keep all that I have now.
