Ingredients
- 1 packet yeast 0.25 oz.
- 3 cups self-raising flour 24 oz.
- ½ cup sugar 4 oz.
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 cups oil for frying 24 oz.
- 2 cups lukewarm water 16 oz.
Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- Add the sugar and yeast to lukewarm water in a mixing bowl.
- Allow the yeast to soften (usually takes about 5 minutes). Once the yeast produces bubbles, you are ready to move to the next step.
- Sieve the self-raising flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Pour the yeast mixture into the flour and salt mixture.
- Knead and blend the dough mixture until soft and smooth (about 5-10 minutes).
- Place a cloth over the dough and remove it once it has doubled in size. It can take about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Scoop about a handful of the dough.
- Roll it on a floured surface until smooth.
- Flatten the dough and repeat the actions with the rest of the dough.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan, deep-fryer, or a big saucepan to 350°F.
- Fry dough until golden brown on the two sides (at least 2 minutes per side). If the pans are large, you can fry 2-5 pieces at once.
- Enjoy!
