INGREDIENTS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– 3 cups of flour
– \u00bd cup sugar
– 1 tbsp of instant dry yeast
– 4 tbsp of margarine
– 1 large egg (optional)
– \u00bd tbsp vanilla flavour (optional)
– \u00bd cup of warm water
– Oil for frying (just enough to let the dough float).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PROCEDURE:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Mix the flour and yeast together into a bowl. Ensure to sift them first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Sift other dry ingredients into the bowl and mix thoroughly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Add margarine and mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Mix egg and flavour to form crumbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Make a well at the center and start adding warm water gradually until it’s soft and pliable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Transfer to your table, sprinkle some flour and begin to knead to form a dough for about 20-25minutes. (Don’t overwork your dough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(It should have become stretchy after 25minutes of kneading).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Form a ball with it, place in a bowl and allow to rise for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* After it doubles, punch it down and start forming your balls with your dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(You can use scale to measure so that you have equal sizes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Place each ball on a separate paper,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(This will make it easy for you to drop in oil without deflating the dough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Allow these to rise to until doubled in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Heat your oil until it is just hot enough to cook your dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(To test for heat, just drop a small dough into the oil, If it floats immediately, your oil is good to go, if it sits back in the oil, it’s too cold for your dough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Pick one dough, using the paper, drop carefully into the oil, you should see just tiny bubbles and not large ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(Slow fry it, to ensure that it gets well cooked inside).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Flip the dough once it’s golden brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Place on kitchen towel to remove excess oil, allow to cool<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(You may desire to fill with jam or any filling of your choice).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TO FILL WITH JAM:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Use a round nozzle and a piping bag to fill the jam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Make a hole, insert the nozzle and squeezed the jam in it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
