👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Make the dough: In a small bowl, combine yeast and warm water. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and sugar. Add the yeast mixture, oil, and salt. Whisk until combined; the dough will be wet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size and bubbly.

2. 2

   Prepare the syrup: While the dough rises, combine honey, orange blossom water, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Stir to blend and set aside.

3. 3

   Heat the oil: Pour about 3-4 inches of canola oil into a tall, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Heat over high heat until it reaches 365°F (185°C). A drop of batter should sizzle and brown quickly.

4. 4

   Fry the zalabia: Have the syrup bowl and a plate for finished zalabia near the stove. Using two tablespoons, scoop a heaping spoonful of dough with one and use the other to scrape it into the hot oil. Fry in batches, turning occasionally, for about 2 minutes per side, until puffed, crisp, and golden brown. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan.

5. 5

   Coat in syrup: Remove the fried zalabia with a slotted spoon, letting excess oil drip back into the pot. Immediately transfer to the bowl of syrup and toss to coat. Stack on a serving plate and repeat with remaining dough.
