Kasisi doesn’t need Fat Thursday for sweet doughnuts called vitumbuwa to appear in children’s hands – but the dear sisters will still make sure that tradition is honoured. Will you help us fund a doughnut for each of the kids? You can find them in the pantry and directly on your children’s profiles!
And if you want to taste a bit of Kasisi joy yourself today, prepare a fragrant, warm vitumbuwa with us. We got the recipe straight from the sisters!
Ingredients:
– 240 g flour
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– Up to 100 g sugar
– Approx. 360 ml milk or water
– 2 eggs
– Vegetable oil (for deep frying)
All ingredients should be at room temperature. Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly in a medium sized bowl. Add the eggs and half the milk, stir gently just until the ingredients are combined. Then add the rest of the milk, making sure the batter is not too runny.
Mix the batter well, making sure there are no air bubbles or lumps in the batter.
Heat about 1 cup of vegetable oil over a high heat. Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, spoon the dough in portions into the oil, forming small doughnuts. Fry until a nice golden colour is achieved. Drain on a paper towel and eat with a smile. Without one, it doesn’t taste as it should.
The metal cots and worn-out mattresses have lulled generations of Kasisi kids to sleep, but are now in desperate need of replacement.
Our dream is to make the babies’ bedrooms look like a truly homely, safe environment that is associated with warmth. Will you help us make this dream a reality?
