Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon salt or to taste
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3–4 cups warm water
  • 4½ teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 6–7 cups all purpose flour
  • Vegetable oil for deep frying

Steps

  1. Combine the salt, sugar, warm water, and yeast in a medium-size bowl. Set aside for about 5–7 minutes.
  2. Add the flour and mix very well; if you have a mixer, use it.
  3. Let the mixture rise for approximately 2 hours.
  4. Pour the vegetable oil in a large saucepan until it reaches at least 5 cm deep—too little oil will result in flatter fritter. Heat over medium heat—a drop of batter should rise to the surface and start sizzling.
  5. Use a spoon or your hands to drop dollops of batter into the hot oil. Fry for a few minutes until golden brown on one side. Turn the ball to the other side and fry until golden brown.
  6. Use a large perforated spoon to remove the fritters and place them on paper towels to soak up excess oil.
  7. If desired, roll the finished product in powdered sugar or table sugar.
