👨‍🍳 Instructies

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and yeast. Make a well in the center.

   💡 Pro Tips: Ensure yeast is fresh for proper rising.
2. 2

   Pour the lukewarm milk and beaten egg into the well. Add melted butter and salt.

   💡 Pro Tips: Milk should be warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast.
3. 3

   Mix all ingredients until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

   💡 Pro Tips: Dough should spring back when poked.
4. 4

   Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

5. 5

   Punch down the dough and divide it into small portions. Roll each portion into a ball.

   💡 Pro Tips: Aim for balls about 3-4 cm in diameter.
6. 6

   Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 170°C (340°F).

   💡 Pro Tips: Use a thermometer to ensure correct oil temperature.
7. 7

   Carefully fry the dough balls in batches until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

   💡 Pro Tips: Do not overcrowd the pot.
8. 8

   Remove the fried balls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Dust generously with powdered sugar while still warm.
