Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix all the ingredients (except the vegetable oil) until you have a thick dough of the same texture as a choux pastry. Add water if necessary.
  2. In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat, at a temperature of about 350 F / 180 C.
  3. Form balls of dough with tablespoons or with your hands and fry them for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Enjoy hot or warm.

Notes

  • If the temperature of the oil is too high, the panikeke will not be cooked inside. If the temperature is too low, the panikeke will be greasy. The use of a thermometer is therefore very important.
