🧂 Składniki
- 320 g All-purpose flour((approx. 2.5 cups))
- 250 ml Milk(lukewarm)
- 1 large Egg
- 60 g Plain yogurt((approx. ¼ cup))
- 6 g Salt((1 tsp))

👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
In a small bowl, combine the lukewarm milk, sugar, and yeast. Stir and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Ensuring the yeast is active is crucial for fluffy uštipci. - 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, yogurt, and 1 tbsp of oil. Add the foamy yeast mixture and stir to combine.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Using yogurt contributes to a tender crumb. - 3
Add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir with a spoon until a thick, sticky batter forms. Do not overmix or knead.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: The batter should be quite wet; this leads to airy centers. - 4
Cover the bowl and let the batter rise in a warm place for 25-35 minutes, or until puffy.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 5
Heat the frying oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 175–180°C (345–355°F).
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Maintaining the correct oil temperature is key to preventing greasy uštipci. - 6
Using two oiled spoons, drop walnut-sized blobs of batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Oiling the spoons helps the batter release easily. - 7
Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until deep golden brown and cooked through. Flip them as needed to ensure even browning. They will puff up significantly.

Remove the fried uštipci with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt immediately after frying.
💡 Wskazówki profesjonalistów: Serve warm for the best texture.
