FRIJE

Instructions

• 1.   You can use 1 cube of fresh yeast or 2 tablespoons of instant yeast.
  Mix all the ingredients to obtain an elastic dough (if using fresh yeast, dissolve it in a little warm water, if using instant yeast, mix it directly with the flour).
• 2.   Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or more, it should double in size.
• 3.   Place the dough on a floured work surface and roll it out to a thickness of about 2 cm. Cut out circles with a diameter of 5 cm using a glass or a cookie cutter. Sprinkle with flour and cover with a cloth. Let it rest for about 20 minutes until the dough circles have risen.
• 4.   Heat frying oil to 180°C. Fry the donuts for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, in batches. Do not fry too many at once, otherwise the oil temperature will drop and the donuts will absorb too much oil. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• 5.   Fill a small piping bag with marmalade or other filling. When the donuts have cooled slightly, make a small lateral incision in each donut. Insert the nozzle into the donut and fill with about 1 teaspoon of marmalade. Put powdered sugar in a shallow dish. Roll each donut in the sugar.
