Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons instant yeast
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
- 3 cups vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and grated nutmeg.
Step 2
Slowly add water to the dry ingredients, stirring consistently until a smooth and thick batter forms. Ensure there are no lumps.
Step 3
Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the batter rise for 1-2 hours in a warm place until it doubles in size.
Step 4
Once the batter has risen, use a wooden spoon to deflate it slightly and mix it well.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Ensure that the oil is deep enough to submerge the batter fully.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or your hand, scoop small portions of the batter and gently drop them into the hot oil.
Step 7
Fry the puffs in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry each batch for about 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Use a slotted spoon to remove the puff puffs, draining excess oil on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your low sodium puff puff.
