👨🍳 Instruções
- 1
In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture, vegetable oil, and the optional egg. Mix until a soft dough forms.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if too dry, add a tablespoon of milk. - 3
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. 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.

Punch down the risen dough. Roll it out to about 1 cm (0.5 inch) thickness and cut into small diamond or square shapes.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: You can also roll the dough into small balls. - 5
Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a deep pan or pot over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Test the oil temperature with a small piece of dough; it should sizzle immediately. - 6
Carefully fry the baursaki in batches, turning them occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. This should take about 3-5 minutes per batch.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in greasy baursaki. - 7
Remove the fried baursaki with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. Serve warm.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Baursaki are best enjoyed fresh.
