ISO: Orewellas (spelling?)

Misc.
I'm looking for a Christmas cookie that my late grandmother used to make. I grew up in Gary, IN in the early 50's; a time when Gary was quite a melting pot, so I'm unsure of where these cookies may have originated. My grandmother came from Spain and would make these deep fried cookies every Christmas, by the bushels full! They are a light and airy cookie made with anise, cut into strips and then deep fried and then dusted with confectioners sugar. We knew them as Oriewellas, (spelling unknown). If anyone out there has this recipe, I would love to be able to share it with my granddaughter to continue the holiday tradition.
