Sto cercando di scoprire se questo è effettivamente un piatto tedesco o solo una versione americanizzata di un piatto tedesco. Mia madre e i festival nelle città tedesche locali che servirebbero il fetakugan (la mia ortografia potrebbe essere sbagliata).
Il piatto è davvero semplice. È solo una fetta di pasta di pane che viene gettata in una friggitrice senza riguardo per la forma o l’aspetto. Detto questo verrebbero fuori semicircolari. Poi li ricopriresti immediatamente di zucchero alla cannella e dopo il raffreddamento sarebbero pronti da mangiare.
Sono solo curioso perché sto cercando di trovarlo online ma non si trova da nessuna parte. Dato che ha un nome dal suono tedesco, ho anche pensato che fosse una qualche forma di cibo tedesco. È davvero tedesco?
Modifica: di recente ho alcuni esempi che sono i più vicini alla corrispondenza.

Questi hanno l’aspetto più vicino al “fetakugan” come riferimento.

Maybe you’re referring to langos? It’s often sold at Christmas markets.
This sounds like Langos which would be Hungarian https://www.oetker.at/rezepte/r/langos
Sounds like [Quarkbällchen](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Quarkb%C3%A4llchen&t=bravened&iax=images&ia=images&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cookbakery.de%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F02%2FIMG_6153-1460×820.jpg) or something similar. Yes, it’s quite common, but recipes can vary depending on region. There’s also Armer Ritter, which is a way to use up stale/ hard breadrolls. You dunk them into a mixture of milk and eggs, fry them and then coat them in sugar and cinnamon.
There are many different versions of fried dough in Germany/Europe.
The mixture of feta and cinnamon is strange, however.
I think they are Quarkbällchen.
Quark is a dairy product that is not existing in the US, maybe that’s replaced with feta.
`Bällchen’ are ”small balls“, but you could also call them ”kugeln“ which sounds similar to your spelling ”kugan“.
Called “ausgezogene” around here. https://www.einfachbacken.de/rezepte/ausgezogene-suesse-kuechle-einfach-selber-machen
I’d guess the name is “Fettkuchen” or fat cakes, but I can’t find any information on a recipe under that name that would resemble what you describe.
Auszogne or Kirchweihnudeln (same principle but shaped more like balls
I think it is Raderkuchen. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faworki
Here it’s called “Arme Ritter (poor knights) I don’t know a similiar word to fetakuga, but I thing Kugan ight be Kuchen
Ausgezogene or maybe Zwetchgenbavesen. Although the latter are filled with some kind of plum “marmalade”.
The only dough that I know about and that I’d throw in oil or concentrated butter to fry is that of Schmalzkuchen.
[Schmalzkuchen from dough to finish](https://kathis-rezepte.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Schmalzkuchen-Schmalzgebaeck-Kathis-Rezepte-2-595×595.jpeg) add some Puderzucker (powdered sugar) and it’s delicious.

I love my country.
„Vetkoek“
Dutch. But that ist nearly german.

Maybe it’s Fasnetsküchle
https://www.chefkoch.de/rezepte/819411186468468/Schwaebische-Fasnetskuechle.html
Which ist German
if it has cinnamon and sugar it is most likely not bread, because real bread would taste horrible mixed with that. You are probably looking for a pastry like Ausgezogene, Küchla, Krapfen,.. they are made from a sweet yeast dough similar to American doughnut dough.
The only kind of “fried” bread I know is Stockbrot, which is normal sour dough or pita bread you put on a stick, coat in oil, some people also coat it in herbs, and grill in the huge bonfire on St. Johannis day
