CHINESE DOUGHNUTS RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Use either a deep fryer, or a large deep skillet.
• Be sure to add enough of oil to line the bottom of the pan a couple of inches deep.
• Heat oil to 350 degrees.
• Remove biscuits from can and fry a few at a time in the fryer.
• When browned on one side, turn over.
• When golden brown on both sides remove from oil, and drain on paper towels.
• Pour sugar into a small container, and once the doughnuts have cooled slightly toss the doughnut into the sugar, and coat on both sides.
• Be sure to fry only a couple at a time.

Steps:

• Mix sugar and water together in a small bowl until melted. Let cool, at least 15 minutes. Add egg; mix until combined.
• Combine 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Mix in sugar-egg mixture and 2 tablespoons oil with a wooden spoon. Knead by hand until dough sticks together, adding 1 teaspoon water at a time if too dry. Wrap dough in plastic wrap; let rest for 30 minutes.
• Unwrap dough and place on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out into long tubes. Cut tubes into small pieces and roll pieces into balls about 1/2-inch wide.
• Spray balls lightly with water. Place sesame seeds in a shallow dish. Dip dough balls into the sesame seeds and roll to press in the seeds.
• Heat deep-frying oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add dough balls; reduce heat to low. Cook, turning occasionally, until lightly golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
