Sopaipillas

This recipe for fried bread is from The Pampa Cookbook, published in successive printings in Chuquicamata, Chile. All the recipes were donated by residents living in the mining camps of Chuquicamata and Potrerillos, with each identified with a hometown. The proceeds were dedicated to Chuqui Ayuda a la Infancia.

Take regular bread dough after it has risen the first time, and cut into strips about 1 inch by 3 inches. Let rise again and fry in deep fat, like doughnuts. Serve hot with jam. *** Usese masa de pan, después que haya levantado una vez, y córtese en tiras de una por tres pulgadas. Déjese levantar otra vez y friase en manteca caliente. Sirvanse caliente con mermeladas.
