How I make it

  1. Put all the dough ingredients in a bowl and knead into a smooth dough. Let rest for 30 minutes in a cool place, not the fridge.

  2. Shape the dough into 20 rounds. Flour the work surface and lightly flour each round.

  3. Poke a hole in the center of each round with your finger.

  4. Heat the oil for deep frying, add the dough rings and fry for about 2 minutes per side, until golden.

  5. Lift out onto paper towels. Serve with sour cream and jam.
