Okinawa Doughnuts

Combine Eggs and Sugar in a mixing bowl. Add Salt and melted Butter, and mix well. Add Self-Raising Flour and mix to form soft dough. Allow to rest while you are preparing Oil for frying. *Note: 1 cup is 250ml

Heat Oil about depth of 5cm in a large saucepan and heat to 150 to 160°C, which is relatively low temperature.

As the dough is very sticky, wet your hands with Oil and form 2-3cm balls and carefully drop them into the oil. Slowly deep-fry doughnuts until puffed and cracked, and nicely browned all over. It takes about 6 minutes.

*Note: Do not cook too many at once as the relatively low temperature of the oil will drop further, and the doughnuts get soggy or might collapse.

Transfer the doughnuts to a tray lined with paper towel. Repeat with the remaining dough. Keep the temperature of the oil about 150 to 160°C.
