Bambalouni

Instructions

1. 1 Combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add oil and warm water gradually, mixing into a soft and slightly sticky dough.
2. 2 Knead the dough for eight minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for thirty minutes until puffy.
3. 3 Pull off pieces of dough the size of a small orange. Poke a hole through the center and stretch into a ring shape.
4. 4 Heat oil to 175C. Gently lower rings into oil and fry two minutes per side until deeply golden and puffed.
5. 5 Remove with a slotted spoon, drain briefly, and immediately roll in granulated sugar while still hot and greasy.
6. 6 Eat immediately while warm and crispy. Optionally sprinkle with orange blossom water for a floral Tunisian touch.
