Ingredients
-
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
-
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
-
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
-
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
-
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Directions
-
Heat about 3 inches of oil in a saucepan to 375 degrees F (119 degrees C). In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Set aside for 10 minutes.
-
Sir the remaining 1/2 cup water into the bowl. Add flour, beating vigorously until a soft dough forms.
-
Turn the dough out onto a smooth surface, and knead with greased hands until smooth. Place dough in a greased bowl, and turn to coat the surface. Cover with a damp cloth. Let rise in a warm place until double in bulk, about 1 to 1/1/2 hours.
-
Fry golf ball sizes of dough in batches until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and eat while still hot.
