Doughnut










Ingredients
Sift:
· 250gms High protein flour
· 100gms Plain flour
· 1/2 tsp Salt
· 1 pkt Instant yeast
· 30gms Castor sugar
Combine:
· 30gms Melted butter
· 1no Lightly beaten egg
· 150ml Warm milk
· Oil for deep-flying
For coating:
· Cinnamon sugar or
· Strawberry Chocolate or
· Orange Chocolate.
Method
1. Put sifted flours and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir in yeast and sugar. Pour combined ingredients into flour mixture. Mix well and knead till you get soft dough.
2. Turn out dough on a lightly-floured board. Knead for about five to six minutes until the dough is smooth. Place dough in mixing bowl again, cover with damp tea-towel and leave aside to proof for 60 minutes or until it doubles in size.
3. Knead dough on a lightly-floured board for a minute. Roll out dough to 3/4 cm thickness. Stamp out with a doughnut cutter. (You can gather up the pieces of remaining dough, roll it out and stamp again with the cutter.)
4. Place the cut out doughnut on grease-proof paper. Cover with greased cling film wrap and leave aside to rise for 25 to 30 minutes.
5. Heat oil and deep-fry doughnuts till they puff up and turn golden brown. Remove and drain doughnuts on wire mesh; toss them in cinnamon sugar or melted chocolate and serve.
