On another day Werner barbecued
chicken, sausages from Romania and pork chops. He also started
the fire with pine cones, which I had never seen this done
before, then added 'real' coals. Lissi made a pasta salad
and a fresh vegetable salad. Their flowers were so full
and beautiful, the climate is wonderful there. When there
is not enough rain, they have to pump the water from the well
into a watering can and water the flowers and vegetables and
repeat the process over and over. They are hard workers.
'crispy fried dough'
A Hungarian-Romanian specialty,
remembered and loved by the Donauschwaben.
Prepared by Lissi, at
their summer house
Delicious with sour
cream, grated cheese, paprika & fresh garlic oil.
