Method

1. Place all the ingredients into a large bowl, mix and then knead for 10 minutes (or knead for 5 minutes in a machine with a dough hook attached).

2. Cut the dough into 8 and shape into balls. Leave to prove until double in size on a greased tray.

3. Heat the oil in a pan to a medium heat (140°C) and deep fry the donuts until golden brown, drain and toss in sugar.
