Beat egg whites until stiff, then add yolks and beat well. Add salt,
vanilla and baking powder. Add enough flour to make a soft dough. Let stand
1 hour covered.

Divide dough into 2 balls. Roll out each ball as thin as possible. Cut
into strips 1-inch wide.

Melt 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup shortening in deep pan. When the
oil and shortening is melted and hot, roll the 1-inch strips of dough on a
fork and place in the oil and continue curling the strips as you go along.
Cook to a slight brown color and put on paper towels to absorb the oil and
drain.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar or make sugar syrup.

SUGAR SYRUP: Boil all ingredients together in a heavy pan for 30 min. and
cool. Pour over finished dessert of dough curls.
