Ingredients
| Ingredients | Measure |
| Flour | 500g |
| Milk | 500ml |
| Instant Yeast | 10g |
| Salt | 10g |
| Sugar | 25g |
Instruction
- Place the flour in a large bowl and add the yeast and sugar
- If the milk is cold make sure to heat it to lukewarm
- Mix your flour mixture bit by bit with the milk until you have a smooth batter
- Add the salt and mix with a wooden spoon till the batter is smooth and liquidy
-
Cover with a clean tea towel and leave in a warm spot for about an hour to rise
-
Heat your deep fryer or add the oil to a large pot
- The oil should be a t 180˚C (350˚F) for best results
-
Before starting stir your batter through and scoop the batter with two spoons or with an ice cream scoop
- Let it drop into the oil carefully
- It is easiest to do this if you dip your spoons or scoop into the oil before dipping into the batter
- That way it will slide of the spoons easily
- Don't over crowd the fryer to prevent the oil cooling down too quickly and everything sticking together
- Once one side is golden brown it usually turns around to the other side automatically
- If not help it along with two forks
-
Take the balls out once golden brown and leave to drain on a piece of kitchen paper
